Mahaney on Pride

We're at Windy Gap right now with the students from school. This place is incredible. They have a new building that seriously is like the Grove Park Inn. Its insane.
Austin is speaking this morning on humility and our approach to God. Its amazing how pride is our ever-present companion, so sometimes we don't recognize how disgusting it is. Mahaney has a great quote relating to pride and self-worship:

“Pride is when sinful human beings aspire to the status and position of God and refuse to acknowledge their dependence on him.” -C. J. Mahaney
