Pridefooled - The "I" in Pride

Nov 23, 2025    Phil Posthuma

In this message, we look at how our culture’s growing focus on “I” over “we” reveals a deeper spiritual issue: pride. When self rises to the center, we start seeing everything through the lens of how it affects us and that’s when spiritual blindness, hypocrisy, and ineffectiveness take root. Through examples like Saul in 1 Samuel 13, the sons of Sceva in Acts 19, and Peter in Galatians 2, we’ll see how pride pulls us off mission, while Jesus’ words in John 5:44 and the call of 1 Corinthians 10:31 invite us back to a life shaped by God’s glory, not our own.
