Ash Wednesday Sermon: “The Seven Deadly Sins: Pride” – Luke 18:9-14 – February 14, 2024
Last century, the Christian writer C.S. Lewis wrote a famous book called “Mere Christianity.” In it, he has a chapter on pride. Know what the title of that chapter is? “The Great Sin.” On Ash Wednesday, we heard about the great danger of pride. Pride trusts in its own self-righteousness. Pride looks down on everyone else. Pride wars against God. Pride lives in every one
of us. It’s only the grace of God in Jesus that can disarm the pride in our hearts. Life isn’t a competition. You don’t have to make yourself look good. You are lovely, because you are loved by Jesus. In repentance, we turn to God and trust in his mercy: “God, have mercy on me, a sinner” (Luke 18:13). I hope you can listen to this Ash Wednesday sermon about the dangers of pride and
the comfort of Jesus’ forgiveness. God bless you!
