Tag Archives: God humbles the proud

“The Few and the Proud” – Luke 14:1-14

What is humility?  How do humble people look?  Do they tilt their head to the side?  Do they avoid self-satisfied grins?  How does one look humble?  In the parable of the chairs Jesus points out three symptoms of the proud, and by looking at their opposite we can find three symptoms of the humble.  Join us as we explore the insidious nature of pride and how God views the proud, and also see how much God loves and exalts the humble.    Sermon originally preached on July 18, 2010.
