Manage episode 485448641 series 1423149
Do you have a tendency to take a bit too much credit for your success while overlooking God’s blessing in your life? Even with the best of intentions, the human heart always defaults toward pride.

In a real sense, Gideon manufactured his own “broken savior.”
