114: Balancing Praise with Humility

Send a text Humility: once you think you have it, you actually don't. That's the challenge of this basic Christian virtue. Today's conversation is with Dr. Dennis Edwards, the brilliant mind behind the book Humility Illuminated: the biblical path back to Christian character, to help us tackle this complex virtue. As your host, Margie Bryce, I get personal about my own experiences leading with humility. It's a journey sprinkled with trials and victories, from the difficulties of relying on the generosity of others to the constant comparisons with larger ministries that can cloud our perspective. Dr. Edwards and I shed light on the importance of being a welcoming community leader, one who listens earnestly and serves with the resources at hand. Our conversation journeys into the heart of humility in community service, valuing collaboration over competition and celebrating the unique gifts each congregation brings to the table.
