Fear is a thief. It steals confidence, purpose, and faith. But here’s the truth—God didn’t create you to live in fear.

Pride is the most dangerous sin because it’s the easiest to hide.

It whispers lies like:

❌ “You don’t need help.”
❌ “You’re not wrong—they are.”
❌ “You can handle this alone.”

“Pride callouses our hearts and deepens our convictions in flat-out lies! The only way to begin warfare with this enemy, is to become brutally honest with yourself and those around you.”
- Joshua Jones

But here’s the truth → Pride will destroy your marriage, your friendships, and your walk with God.


WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE

What Pride Does to You:

It makes you unteachable. (Proverbs 16:18)
It isolates you from godly accountability. (James 4:6)
It blinds you to areas where you need growth. (Proverbs 11:2)

How to Kill Pride Before It Kills You:

✅ Admit when you’re wrong – Humility starts with honesty.
✅ Seek accountability – Surround yourself with men who will challenge you.
✅ Surrender daily – Pride dies when we humble ourselves before God.
