Overview

The only true authority on humility is Jesus Christ. He emptied himself, taking on the form of a servant, and then humbled himself, taking on our sins and dying on the cross for us. When He calls us to followHim and endeavors to make us like Him, essential steps He leads us to take include slaying the sin of pride and nurturing the grace of humility. God provides a promise of encouragement in the Prophet Isaiah, “this is the one to whom I will look: he who is humble and contrite in spirit and trembles at my word.” We will walk through the Old and New Testaments, learning from examples of both pride and humility there to lead us before the gaze and favor of our humble Lord and King.
