The Blessing of Humility by Jerry Bridges
We all admire humility when we see it. But how do we practice it? How does humility--the foundational virtue of the normal Christian life--become a normal part of our everyday lives?Jerry Bridges sees in the Beatitudes a series of blessings from Jesus, a pattern for humility in action. Starting with poverty in spirit--an acknowledgment that in and of ourselves we are incapable of living holy lives pleasing to God--and proceeding through our mourning over personal sin, our hunger and thirst for righteousness, our experience of persecutions large and small, and more, we discover that humility is itself a blessing: At every turn, God is present to us, giving grace to the humble and lifting us up to blessing.JERRY BRIDGES is a Biblical teacher and author. The Pursuit of Holiness, The Practice of Godliness, Trusting God, and The Gospel for Real Living (all NavPress) are among his works. Jerry is a member of the collegiate ministry of The Navigators. He and his wife, Jane, make their home in Colorado Springs.
