from The Daily Grind · host John Spencer

Monday, April 15: Join us as we look into the concept of the false self, as explored by theologian Thomas Merton, and witness its transformative power through the story of King Nebuchadnezzar in Daniel chapter four. Nebuchadnezzar's journey from pride to humility serves as a poignant reminder of God's ability to humble the proud and set them free from the shackles of self-centeredness. Through reflection and introspection, we discover how to relinquish our false selves and embrace God's sovereignty in our lives. ⁠⁠Email me your questions, comments, and suggestions.
