The Twisted Pride That Keeps You From Being Known - Episode 33216 Sept31 min

<p>Everybody wants to be fully known and fully loved - and almost</p><p>nobody wants to risk it. In this episode of Digging Deeper, Pastor Matt,</p><p>Pastor Thom and Pastor Jay unpack why being known is so hard, especially inside</p><p>the church, and how pride hides on both sides of the struggle.</p><p><br></p><p>We usually think of pride as bragging and one-upmanship. But</p><p>there's a quieter, more twisted version: </p><p><br></p><p>"I'm not worthy. Nobody should waste their time on me. God wants good things for His</p><p>people - just not me." </p><p><br></p><p>That's not humility. That's putting your</p><p>own voice above God's, and it can keep you isolated, guarded, and</p><p>slow to trust anyone who tries to come close.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode, the guys dive into the value and importance of being known and why it's so important, despite how difficult it can be to take the first steps. </p><p><br></p><p>If you've ever felt too much or not enough to be known, this one</p><p>is for you. Take the risk. Put the reps in. You might clam up the</p><p>first six weeks - week seven is still coming.</p><p><br></p><p>Digging Deeper is brought to you by New Hope Church.</p><p><br></p><p>Subscribe for new episodes, and share this one with a friend who</p><p>needs to hear it.</p>
