Today Pastors Clint and Michael introduce Pride and Greed as part of the seven deadly sins. Pride, often called the chief sin, is the innate human temptation to evaluate the value of our lives based upon the perception of others and to reach for privilege and power for our own sake. Greed flows out of our innate human temptation to acquire more things in the hope of filling our restless souls. Though it can sometimes be very difficult to face the truth of our sinfulness, it is the very necessary first step to finding the kind of freedom and real agency that we have always wanted to be part of our lives.
Be sure to share this with anyone who you think might be interested in growing deeper in their faith and Christian discipleship.
