Humility: The Beauty of Holiness


Chip Ingram added a book to my reading list -- one I'd heard of but never read. It's an old classic, Andrew Murray's Humility: The Beauty of Holiness. Chip says, "Murray told the life of Jesus through the lens of humility, and it was so attractive, I wanted to give up every prideful motive I've ever had. The Christian life that seemed so burdensome earlier started to shift. I saw the beauty of wanting to be like Jesus, and all the striving and laboring turned into joyful pursuit." Chip Ingram, Good to Great in God's Eyes, from the chapter on "Read great books."
