Confident Humility

Start Date: Jan 28, 2025

How do I find Security? How do I find Confidence? How do I find Peace? A world of well-intentioned people bombard us every day with quotes and advice meant to inspire us and to improve our lives. Yet depression, anxiety, addiction, and suicide increase all around us. Why? I believe most of the supposed wisdom we encounter every day emerges from one of two flawed and destructive views of human nature. I call these views the Ditch of Smallness and the Ditch of Bigness. In Confident Humility, I presented a third view, a road between these toxic ditches. Jesus overthrows both ditches, revealing an understanding of self that frees us from the toxicity of the ditches and empowers us to live securely and confidently.

"My almost-three-year-old asks every day if we can go to church. Thank you, Woodland Hills, and all the Heroes Gate volunteers for creating such a great environment for kids. My husband and I met at WH six years ago and now our son counts down the days until we get to go again. My heart could burst."
