Everyday Humility: Twelve Humble Steps into a Life of Joy invites you to discover a life of joy by learning to walk in the way of genuine humility. Humility and joy grow best when we engage in life-giving, down-to-earth practices, such as the twelve steps presented in Everyday Humility: go outside, step aside, be mentored, make music, walk in a relaxed manner, love simplicity, cultivate gratitude, offer hospitality, love silence, become childlike, speak gently, and live humbly. Through such down-to-earth ways of living, humility and joy develop in a person's life. Everyday Humility explores Jesus' way of humility and joy, rooted in the ancient writings of St. Benedict, especially in chapter seven of The Rule on twelve steps of humility. Down-to-earth humility grows from a spiritual life rooted in the good earth of Christ's love, developing an authentic spiritual life that is personal, real, and earthy. Everyday humility leads to delight and a life of joy. Everyday Humility also connects with the twelve steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, providing a twelve-step, year-long, month-by-month resource that meets the needs of people who seek God and who week a life of greater joy. This resource may be used in ministry contexts, such as with home groups, small groups, twelve-step sponsor groups, or leadership team development, as well as individual faith development over a period of a full year of journeying into a life of greater humility and joy.

Gavin Seah’s True Humility is today’s answer to finding true peace and balance in life. How often have we tried to seek peace through practicing a YOLO mindset, hoped for happiness in the pursuit of wanderlust, or looked to social media to strengthen our identity? These are common behaviors we engage in, sometimes without even realizing it. Inevitably, we later find ourselves in a never-ending state of frustration, anxiety, and depression. Like many in today’s culture and society, Gavin didn’t know that he was searching for happiness and meaning in the wrong places, and he became a victim of his own self-focused behaviors. He also battled the effects of bullying, racism, and ostracism from his past, experiences that affected the way he looked at the world. In True Humility, Gavin shares his personal stories, observations about life, and key takeaways to help readers understand the practice of True Humility. Through powerful insights and actionable advice, he shows us how to reclaim peace and regain the balance we need. You’ll be able to recognize and identify everyday practices in our world that are rooted in self-centered behaviors, learn about three specific moral values that can positively shape your life, discover how to embody the characteristics of True Humility, and begin to create an impact that makes everyone around you better. When you take on the posture of True Humility in your daily life, you elevate it. You’ll be uplifted and changed, able to live at your best.

If the summation of the gospel is to love God with all our hearts and our neighbor as ourselves, then the essence of how we fulfill that commandment is found in clothing ourselves in an attitude of humility. First we walk humbly with God; then we practice humility toward our fellow human beings. Becoming a humble person is God's will for every believer, but it is every individual's choice. If we do not choose to walk humbly but instead choose to exalt ourselves, God will humble us in a way that we would never have chosen. This character quality is so dear to God's heart that it is the key to walking closely with Him and finishing life well.

Words have enormous power. They can make us erupt into laughter or bring tears to our eyes. They can influence, inspire, manipulate and shock. They can build, and they can destroy. Some words have different effects on different people. One such word is humility. It is one of those words that are seldom in neutral gear. Some, like me, love the word and all it stands for. Some almost fear it and interpret it synonymously with lack of self-confidence or timidity. Humility is one of the virtues often mentioned in our everyday life. But what is humility? And is it a virtue? The dictionary defines humility as modesty, lacking pretence, not believing that you are superior to others. An ancillary definition includes: "Having a lowly opinion of oneself, meekness". An interesting dichotomy is that, often, the higher people rise, the more they have accomplished, the higher the humility index. Those who achieve the most brag the least, and the more secure they are in themselves, the more humble they are. There is also an understated humility of everyday people we work with who have the ability to get the job done without drawing attention to themselves. Witness the employee who is working at his computer into the late hours, purely motivated by a keen sense of duty, the executive assistant who stays after 5:30pm on a Friday night in an empty office to await a courier, or the manager who quietly cancels an important personal event to fly out of town to attend to the company's business. This is akin to the philanthropist who gives an anonymous donation. In this book, we will take a critical look at the subject matter of humility, the false assumptions people often make regarding it, and how it is an important quality for everyone to have. We will also provide you tips on how to exercise humility in your everyday life. Happy reading!

“God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” —1 Peter 5:5 A battle rages within every one of us every day. It’s the clash between our sense of stubborn self-sufficiency and God’s call to recognize that we’re really nothing without Him. It’s pride versus humility. And it’s a fight we can’t win without looking repeatedly to Christ and the cross. C. J. Mahaney raises a battle cry to daily, diligently, and deliberately weaken our greatest enemy (pride) and cultivate our greatest friend (humility). His thorough examination clarifies misconceptions, revealing the truth about why God detests pride and turns His active attention to the humble. Because pride is never passive, defeating it demands an intentional attack. The blessing that follows is God’s abundant favor. “This is the one to whom I will look: he who is humble and contrite in spirit.” —Isaiah 66:2, ESV God clearly states that He is drawn to the humble. He’s also clear that He opposes the proud. These two, humility and pride, cannot coexist. Where one is fostered, the other is defeated. Which will you pursue? When you acknowledge the deception of pride and intentionally humble yourself, you become free to savor abundant mercies and unlikely graces. You will find a new life is yours—a life God richly favors. A God-glorifying life you don’t want to miss.

With insightful, penetrating clarity, Murray calls all Christians to turn from pride, empty themselves, and study the character of Christ to be filled with His grace. Often called the best work on humility ever written, this edition has been edited for today's reader.

Pride is obnoxious, annoying, and dangerous. So why do we still struggle with it? Have you ever wondered: Am I the problem? Have you ever asked: Why am I so selfish? Have you ever thought: How can I live a happier, more peaceful life?Humility is an elusive trait. We are often told to be humble without being told how. In Humility Practice, Jacob Hudgins reveals a set of spiritual disciplines that will help us to practice humility. From fasting to arguing, from silence to confession, from gratitude to Bible reading, Hudgins shows how to recast everyday situations as opportunities to lower ourselves. There are ways we can walk toward humility, following the path of Jesus. At each step, we learn how to think more of God and others-and less about ourselves. Part Bible study, part devotional guide, and part call to action, Humility Practice is a handbook to lowly living.

Humility: Meditations For Every Day in the Week by Fr Paul Segneri, S.J. (Preacher to Pope Innocent XII) Excerpt from Introduction: NO virtue is more suitable to man's nature, than humility: a body formed out of dust, and a soul out of nothing, do but afford very mean matter for aspiring; and yet so it is, that nature never is more sensibly checked than by humility. The antient moralists were so entirely strangers to this virtue, that it was not so much as named amongst them; and though the Son of God came to plant it upon earth, which he carefully performed both by his doctrine and example, watering it with his most precious blood, yet it finds man's heart so stubborn, and improper a soil, that it takes very small root. The deplorable state of sin which we are subject to by nature, and which of itself is a proper argument of humility, has a contrary effect. For though we find ourselves shamefully mastered by the Devil's yoke, which presseth heavily upon us, yet at the same time we are nourishing an inward pride insupportable even in a conqueror. I can imagine nothing to be more the occasion of so unaccountable a behaviour, than the want of being acquainted with our own demerits. We are easily induced to despise others, because we often, and willingly, entertain ourselves with their imperfections. The same method will assist us in not being so very well pleased with ourselves. I put this little treatise into thy hand, devout reader, as a glass which will not flatter thee in that respect, but tell thee sincerely what thou art. A glass gives thee the resemblance of thy outward figure; this will discover thy inward man; and with due attention, prove a means of rectifying thy judgment, and help thee to distinguish betwixt the gold and what has only its appearance. And to speak without metaphor, and what the thing really is. Here thou mayest be fully instructed in the wisdom of the saints, which is a perfect in-sight into thy own nothing: a business certainly of greatest consequence, seeing it has God immediately for a teacher, and upon this account is reduced by divines to that gift of the Holy Ghost called understanding. Thou wilt find that as humility is the foundation of all other virtues, so it is built upon the knowledge of ourselves. In a word; he that is fully possessed with a sense of his own misery, is neither unwillingly dis-esteemed, nor does he repine at the evils which befall him, as knowing them to be his due. It is not to be questioned but God has so great a regard to man's conversion, that he takes his measures from it, in all other occurrences which have a relation to the spiritual good of his soul. An instance whereof is found in the children of Israel, whom he detained in the slavery of Egypt, and afterwards gave them a trial of forty years adventures in the desert, to the end they might be brought up with a more lively idea of their wants, and misery. In the same manner God often appears slow in bringing about a sinner's conversion, suffering him to wander in a repeated circle of vanities, that being thoroughly convinced of his inabilities, he may for the future rely entirely upon God's mercy and assistance. But if in imitation of the incorrigible Jews, the sinner will not be informed of his own nothing; God can make use of a more violent method to make him bend, and bring him to reason, as he usually does find a time to humble those that are proud and refractory. For God has appointed to humble every high mountain, and everlasting rocks, Baruch. 5. v. 7. And to this end he frequently permits sinners to plunge themselves into several miscarriages, especially such as are more scandalous, that as the person in the gospel born blind, had his eyes opened by applying a little earth, so the sinner has his understanding opened by his sordid practices.

The Humble Life will both encourage and instruct believers in practical ways of walking daily in the path of humility so that we can make an eternal impact on those around us. Given the increasingly volatile and uncivil environment which exists in the world today, has there ever been a timelier season for Christians to adopt an attitude of grace-infused, resilient humility? The Humble Life will equip readers to be present in every situation, every challenge, and every difficulty they face by learning how to abide in Christ even as Christ continues the ongoing work of sanctification within their hearts. This resource will come alongside believers to help them stay faithful to the commands of Christ to love others as ourselves by way of the life-changing spirit of humility. Through the careful study of how Jesus interacted with his disciples, followers, and even enemies, readers will glean the depths of these lessons on humility as it pertains to daily life. Over and over again, Jesus tells stories and parables from which we can learn how to work out our faith in practical ways, in humble ways. Each story will feature a specific passage from one of the four Gospels where Jesus is speaking. Every chapter will focus on Jesus and his mission, his life, his words, and his way of leading his followers through the steps of humble, loving service to others. These snapshots of Jesus’ interactions with all who met him will serve as a powerful prompt toward developing the habit of humility our go-to model everyday of our lives.
