In contrast, Proverbs 16:32 says, “He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit than he […]

We Desperately Need Him

I recently listened to a sermon on pride, and he talked about how one of the ways to root out pride is to practice the spiritual disciplines, like prayer and Bible reading. Bible reading and prayer can be something we feel obligated to do, or feel pride in doing. Or, we can, in the name of “no legalism”, decide it’s not all that important after all, and let it slide. How […]
