372 How Humility Became a Virtue: The Cross Effect

from The Daily Grind · host John Spencer

Tuesday, November 5: In this episode of The Daily Grind, we explore the revolutionary impact of Jesus on the concept of humility. John shares some ideas from John Dickson’s Undeceptions podcast, about how the ancient world saw humility as a form of weakness or shame, fit only for the oppressed. But Jesus transformed this. Through His crucifixion, He redefined greatness and made humility a beautiful, chosen virtue. By humbling Himself, even to death on a cross, Jesus challenged the honor-shame culture of His day and set a new standard. Today, humility is widely admired – a legacy of Jesus’ life and teaching. ⁠⁠Email me your questions, comments, and suggestions.
