How To Know Pride is Sneaking into Your Life

Read Daniel 4: 28-33
Today’s Truth

We don’t have to be rulers to build kingdoms. We do it every day in big and small ways. We build companies, playgroups, online communities, and Snap streaks. Then, like Nebuchadnezzar, we stand back and admire our accomplishment, saying “Look at me! What a great thing I’ve done!”    

Discussion Question
  1. When was the last time someone offered you advice, but you refused to listen? What did you learn through that experience?
  2. What, if anything, do you find yourself taking pride in? What would it look like to use the attention from that success to point others to Jesus?
Life Application

When God brings pride to our attention, it’s not to shame us but to save us. How much heartache could we miss if we were to listen and repent?

Chuck Adair

If you ask Chuck his favorite thing in life to do, he would tell you it is the teaching and preaching of the scriptures and to call all people to engage in the great adventure of abiding with Christ. He desires to connect people with the richness, adventure, and fullness of life that comes through Christ alone and to reach the unchurched, de-churched, dead-churched, and unmoved. Chuck is married to his best friend Kristin and has two adult children, Taylor and Linley. Kris and Chuck believe the quality of their marriage rises and falls, not on circumstances or feelings, but based on their daily abiding with Jesus (Jn 15.5).
