Humility: the Slayer of Shame

from On the Knife's Edge: Walking the narrow road with Jesus · host Sofia Nygaard

Hi Everyone! Welcome back to our seasons of learning what it takes to take up our cross daily as we stand at the crossroads and look to God. Last episode we talked about how God leads us to cast out shame in the process of facing ourselves, and how God empowers us with love and truth as we do, to more fully take up our cross and follow Him. In today's episode we're looking at the crucial role humility plays in these moments when we are facing shame. We'll begin to dive into David's life and how he defeated, arguably the greatest giant of all, in humility. With him, let us say to our shame: Today the LORD will let me defeat you. I will kill you and all the other shame giants in my life! Then all the world will know there is a God in Israel, and a God in me! (1 Samuel 17:46) Join me on the journey to freedom and fullness of life in Jesus!
