The third definition of “Pride” is: Arrogant or disdainful conduct or treatment; haughtiness. The goal of this lesson is to expose and defeat the enemy of pride in the church/ministry. Pride can creep in, damage and destroy a church operating through leadership as well as membership. Lets do a self-check each week to ensure we are not operating in the spirit of pride. We must engage in “Overcoming the Enemy of Pride” even while experiencing, correction, instruction, reproof as well as rebuke as we expand to excellence.
