Breaking Pride - Tearing Down Walls, Walking in His Grace

Do you desire to walk in the freedom Christ promised when you decided to follow Him? Do you deal with anger, jealousy, envy, pride, and not feeling "good enough?" When you experience hurt, do you build a wall around your heart? Have you ever felt that the emotions you experience keep you from knowing God more intimately?

A lot of believers, even though they are saved by grace, still walk in pride rather than God's grace. Pride is often what we use to protect our hearts and to hide the truth of what we feel. Guarding our hearts doesn't require walls to protect it, rather, it requires that we keep our hearts soft towards God's Word and those around us.

To walk in God's grace, we need to tear down the walls of pride. Knowing what pride is, and learning to identify areas of pride in your life are the first steps to overcoming and experiencing freedom in Christ.

If you're ready to tear down the walls of pride and experience God more fully, Breaking Pride is for you. Breaking Pride will take you from hurting to healing through a practical reading of what pride may look like in your life and how to break free.

If you want to find your way out of pride, get this book. In a nutshell, I believe that every Christian needs to read this book." Emelia Mosima

Heather shares her own feelings, fears and hurts and provides the scripture to back it up. She reminds us that in order to break our pride, we need to let go of the control that consumes us and the desire to portray a certain image to everyone around us. As we do this, we'll begin to form deep and true relationships with friends, family and most importantly, with God. It's not our sin ...
