The Heart E5 - A Prideful and Judging Heart

On today's episode, Jana and Reata delve into a discussion about a prideful and judging heart. In the opening they mention verses that reveal God's truth about pride and having a prideful heart. Jana shares her current issues with judging strangers by their behavior, which leads into a conversation about the importance of recognizing moments of self-righteousness and judgment.



Reata explains the origination of pride in the bible with scripture from Isaiah 14 detailing the self-righteous pride that led to Satan's ultimate downfall. They also discuss scripture from Proverbs which emphasizes the dangers of pride.



Lastly, they discuss how humility keeps pride suppressed and the importance of being mindful of relationships and situations that stir-up or bring about pride, judgement and gossip. They conclude with the idea that humility, gratitude and love ultimately combat pride and judgement.
