Pride is not always loud, boastful, or easy to recognize. It can appear through spiritual achievement, influence, finances, family heritage, athletic success, judgment of others, or even the habit of diminishing our own God-given gifts.

In “The Kinds, Forms, and Degrees of Pride,” Patrick Davidson and Michael Arnold examine the difference between outward and inward pride and explain why every Christian must ask God to reveal the pride hidden within the heart. They discuss humility as more than self-condemnation or thinking poorly of ourselves—it is thinking of ourselves less, depending fully upon God, and allowing the character of Jesus Christ to be formed within us.

Through personal stories, biblical teaching, and lessons from the Humbling Guide, this episode presents sanctification as a lifelong journey of surrendering, humbling, and abiding in Christ. Pride lies at the root of sin, but the humility of Jesus creates the soil in which faith, love, joy, strength, and every other Christian virtue can grow.
