Week 6: When Pride Gets In The Way


Listen Later

In this powerful episode from our Wise Ways series, Pastor B brings a sobering and hope-filled message from Proverbs on one of the most dangerous—and deceptive—sins: pride.

Through the cautionary story of Lenny Cooke and the biblical account of King Nebuchadnezzar, Pastor B unpacks how pride disguises itself in our lives, resists correction, and ultimately leads to downfall. But the message doesn’t stop there—he also reminds us of the One who had every right to exalt Himself, yet chose humility: Jesus Christ.

From balloon-popping illustrations to wisdom from Proverbs and James, this sermon challenges us to confront the pride in our own hearts and trust the only One who can truly save us from ourselves.

Big Idea: Pride wears many disguises—but God sees it, and He opposes it.

Whether you're leading, succeeding, or just trying to follow Jesus faithfully—this message will help you uncover the pride that quietly creeps in and rediscover the freedom found in humility and grace.

Listen now and be reminded: The fall doesn’t start when we hit the ground—it starts when pride lifts us too high to listen.
