Ep. 20 - Sit Down, Be Humble: Wisdom from the Rule of Benedict

Update: 2024-02-08

Description

In the world of LinkedIn announcements and Instagram humble brags, does the old-fashioned virtue of humility have anything to offer? Today's episode uses the framework of St. Benedict's Ladder of Humility to explore why humility is necessary and life-giving for all who follow Christ. We discover that humility is the true root of confidence, listening plays a critical role in how we love others, and humility is like a lazy river in which we need to just let go.
