When it comes to the sins in our lives, we’ll find any reason to make them not seem as bad as they really are. That’s how we end up with “big” sins like murder or adultery and “little” sins like gossip, pride, anger, and envy. Even though we can try to excuse these “little” sins away, the reality is that all sins are equally destructive to our relationships with God, our neighbors, and even ourselves. To rightly pursue holiness, righteousness, and love, we need to recognize sin for what it is – no matter how big or small we think it may be. 

This week we're talking about pride! Pride might be one of the sneakiest little sins. It can manifest itself in many ways and can harden our hearts before we realize it. The Bible is clear that God opposes the proud and gives grace to the humble, but what can we do to make sure that pride isn’t taking root in our lives? In order to combat pride, we need to have faith in God alone and make others more important than ourselves.

This Week's Scripture: Romans 3:19-20, 27
