Thus, it is the sin of Pride they held as the root of every other kind of evil. is possibly the worst of all sins.
In this podcast, I’ll be unpacking a sin that is too often overlooked–especially so in the church! See how the ignored practice of Vainglory is subtlety malicious and, as C.S. Lewis noted, able to transform a good man into an absolute scoundrel. Yet, in the 21st century we are more in danger of falling prey to it than ever before. In fact, very visible Christians have been corrupted already. Join in and learn how to tackle the most insidious sin.
