Lenten Series - Your Whole Heart Pt. 7 Pride

Just A Guy In The Pew Podcast

A Blessed Holy Week to you. Join John and Victor as we conclude the Lenten journey with the 7th Deadly Sin: Pride, the root of all sin.

Humility is dependence on God, as pride is independence of Him" (Archbishop Fulton Sheen). This is the way. This is the remedy.
