Guest: Dr. Jason Snyder   Note: Just to clarify, I do not believe that aliens built the pyramids in Egypt. ;-)   Andrew Murray - Humility   And so pride, or the loss of humility, is the root of every sin and evil.   And so Jesus came to bring humility back to earth, to make us partakers of it, and by it to save us.   His humility is our salvation. His salvation is our humility.   No tree can grow except on the root from which it sprang.   If this [humility] be the root of the tree, its nature must be seen in every branch and leaf and fruit. If humility be the first, the all-including grace of the life of Jesus–if humility be the secret of his atonement–then the health and strength of our spiritual life will entirely depend upon our putting this grace first too, and making humility the chief thing we admire in him, the chief thing we ask of him, the one thing for which we sacrifice all else.   Brother, are you clothed in humility? Ask your daily life. Ask Jesus. Ask your friends. Ask the world. Third, it is only by the indwelling of Christ in his divine humility that we become truly humble. We have our pride from another–from Adam; we must have our humility from Another too.   Gentle and Lowly - Dane Ortlund   Matthew 11:29 - Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart [humble]... Humility - being “God-reliant” and not “self-reliant”   1 Peter 5:5-6 - Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you…   The point in saying that Jesus is lowly is that he is ACCESSIBLE. Are you accessible to those you love? Are you accessible to those in need? Are there dates/times on your calendar that demonstrate your accessibility?   Orange County Rescue Mission - Jim Palmer, President Mission Statement: Minister the love of of Jesus Christ to the LEAST, the LAST, and the LOST   Good to Great - Jim Collins When Collins interviewed people who worked for these leaders, he says they “continually used words like quiet, humble, modest, reserved, shy, gracious, mild-mannered, self-effacing, understanding, did not believe his own clippings, and so forth” to describe them.   Soldier, Statesman, Peacemaker: Leadership Lessons from George C. Marshall by Jack Uldrich   Leaders Eat Last: Why Some Teams Pull Together and Others Don't by Simon Sinek The Law by Frederic Bastiat - socialism is terrible for both the giver and the recipient, the giver is not allowed to sacrifice for the betterment of his brothers, the recipient is not allowed to appreciate the gift from another.   Humility gets God's attention   This is the one to whom I will look: he who is humble and contrite in spirit and trembles at my word.  Isaiah 66:2   Humility - not thinking less about yourself…but thinking about yourself less…   Humility - honestly assessing ourselves in light of God's holiness and our sinfulness   Pride is the only poison that is good for us when swallowed.   Want your life to grow in humility: Study the life of Jesus Intentionally add service opportunities on your calendar T4M guys - just a reminder that Training4Manhood is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) ministry and you can make donations either via Zelle (info@training4manhood.com) or by visiting the Training4Manhood website.

Opening Scripture:If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us, but if we confess our sins, God, who is faithful and just, will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen.Grant to your faithful people, merciful Lord, pardon and peace; that we may be cleansed from all our sins, and serve you with a quiet mind; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

In our industry and even in the world we are surrounded by prideful self-promotion. In fact, we are often told that this is the only way to have success in our business. How can we stay humble if we have to be the best, have the most, and out-do everyone else around us? "Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another. For God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble, humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God, so that at the proper time, he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him because he cares for you." (1 Peter 5:5-6)Today, Tyler and I talk about what it means to clothe ourselves with humility in a pride-filled world.Three Things You'll Learn in this EpisodeHow do we stay humble in a business that tells us self-promotion is the only path to success? When we observe those around us being prideful we can change that narrative for ourselves.What does it look like to clothe yourself with humility toward one another? Humility isn't our natural state but we can move closer to it.How can we be open and vulnerable to being held accountable? Accepting a loving rebuke without having our pride rise to the surface is difficult but achievable.

Pride is the natural love for myself magnified into a disdain for others. Augustine called pride the foundation of sin, for “pride made the soul desert Go, to whom it should cling as the source of life, and to imagine itself instead as the source of its own life.” Jesus words come to us not as an invitation to become poor but in a way to acknowledge that we are poor in spirit. To be able to see this is the opposite of prideful. 1 Peter 5:5-8 (ESV)Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.Matthew 5:1-3 (ESV)Seeing the crowds, he went up on the mountain, and when he sat down, his disciples came to him.And he opened his mouth and taught them, saying:“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen.Grant to your faithful people, merciful Lord, pardon and peace; that we may be cleansed from all our sins, and serve you with a quiet mind; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Opening Scripture:If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us, but if we confess our sins, God, who is faithful and just, will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name.
