Summary
In this sermon from Killing You Softly on the seven deadly sins, Pastor Levi Lusko confronts pride as the root beneath every other sin. Through the lens of the cross, we see that pride doesn’t just distort our lives, it slowly destroys them from the inside out. But the same cross that exposes our pride also provides the cure. As we look at Jesus’ final words, we’re invited to lay down self-absorption, self-reliance, and self-exaltation, and step into a life shaped by humility, surrender, and trust.This message will help you: recognize the different forms pride can take in your life identify how pride subtly shapes your thoughts and reactions replace self-focus with a Christ-centered lifeNEXT STEPS:Ask for prayer or connect with a pastor: https://freshlife.church/contactRegister your decision to follow Jesus and receive free resources: https://freshlife.church/know-godGive a financial gift to support what God is doing as we take steps forward to see the Gospel reach far and wide: https://freshlife.church/giveSUBSCRIBE:Sign up to receive encouragement straight to your inbox, and to stay up to date with announcements, events, and more: https://church.us13.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=6ea4d82b2567db3e86b7767cd&id=451f2fe63eDon’t miss a video!
