"Don't assume that you know it all. Run to God. Run from evil."
Proverbs 3:7
What if pride isn't always loud, obvious, and arrogant?
In today's episode of Everyday Joy, Ash Couchman and Shaylee unpack a challenging truth: pride doesn't have to take over your whole life to impact your relationship with God. Sometimes it's found in the small ways we resist correction, hold tightly to our own opinions, refuse wisdom, or struggle to submit our plans and preferences to God.
Together, they explore the tension between healthy authority and unhealthy control, the importance of humility in the Christian life, and why Jesus consistently calls us to lay down our own agendas in order to follow Him. They also discuss the difference between asking hard questions and assuming we know better, along with the dangers of allowing pride to quietly shape our decisions, relationships, and faith.
If you've ever found yourself thinking, "I've got this handled," or "I don't really need help," this conversation is a powerful reminder that humility isn't weakness. It's the starting point of a healthy relationship with God.
