STOP Fighting! Pride, Worldliness, and the Grace Given to the Humble | James 4 Explained

James 4 contains a central and life-changing principle for every believer: "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble" (James 4:6).

Join Mike, Sam, and Andy in this episode of the Simple Discipleship podcast as they unpack James' radical teaching on the choice between pride and humility.

We discuss:

The Root of Conflict: How selfish desires and pride lead to arguments, division, and even "wars" among believers (4:1-5).

The War on Pride: What it truly means that God opposes those who try to live life in their own self-sufficiency.

The Doorway to Grace: The practical steps James gives for cultivating genuine humility—including submitting to God, resisting the devil, lamenting our sin, and drawing near to Him (4:7-10).

The Promise: The incredible assurance that if we humble ourselves, God will lift us up.

This is a vital conversation for anyone struggling with self-focus, a judgmental spirit, or a lack of peace in their walk. Discipleship begins with a low view of self and a high view of God.
