The Silent Killer: Why Pride Hardens the Heart | The CLC Commute


Listen Later

In this episode of the "Behold the Lamb" Lenten series, Pastor Grant delivers a powerful message titled “The Problem of Pride,” defining pride as a dangerous infection of the heart that breeds self-centeredness, builds our identity on anything other than God’s grace, and causes us to feel either superior or inferior to others. He warns that pride is the root of all vices (the same sin that felled the devil) and subtly creeps into everyday life through comparison, defensiveness in arguments, numbness to sin’s warning signs, and resistance to the Holy Spirit’s conviction. The conversation explores practical ways to combat it—through humble confession to God and trusted others, embracing the discomfort of dying to ego, and allowing the Holy Spirit to keep our hearts soft—so we can live with compassion, keep our eyes open for the “one” who is drifting, and truly follow Jesus to the cross.
