Listen "Pride Dethroned "

Episode Synopsis

In this sermon, we delve into Daniel 4:19-37 which tells the powerful story of King Nebuchadnezzar’s downfall due to his pride and how God humbled him. Pride, in essence, is placing ourselves where only God should be, making us the central figures in a greater divine story. This arrogance strips away our humanity, reducing us to base instincts, as seen in Nebuchadnezzar's transformation. However, when he repented, his dignity and humanness were restored. The passage also highlights how we recognize pride not just in ourselves but in others, as Daniel did, reinforcing the lesson that humility before God leads to true restoration.Kyle Green (5.4.25) | Daniel: Faithfulness and Hope in a Hostile World | Daniel 4:19-37
