Welcome to Calvary's Online Campus!

Explore the fascinating concept of humility in this in-depth Bible study from Romans 12:3-6. In this engaging sermon, we dive into the “humility paradox” uncovered by a 2009 University of Illinois study, which found that those who rated themselves as humble were often seen as humble by others—but thinking you're humble can sometimes lead to pride. We also explore a 2014 Harvard Business Review study highlighting how humble leaders, who admit mistakes and credit others, foster stronger teamwork and higher performance.

What You'll Learn:
1. Drawing from Romans 12, we unpack the importance of humility in the body of Christ, where every member has unique spiritual gifts like prophecy, serving, teaching, exhorting, giving, leading, and showing mercy.

2. These gifts, given by God's grace, are meant to work together like parts of a body—each with a distinct role to glorify God.

3. Learn how humility keeps our focus on God's glory rather than our own and why pride can lead to destruction, as Proverbs 16:18 warns.

4. The biblical significance of the number seven, the dangers of pride in spiritual gifts like prophecy, and the call to “think soberly” about ourselves (Romans 12:3).

5. Practical insights, personal anecdotes, and references to scriptures like Micah 6:8, Philippians 2:3-4, and 1 Peter 5:6-7, this message encourages viewers to examine their hearts, embrace humility, and use their God-given gifts to serve others.

Perfect for those seeking spiritual growth, this teaching is ideal for Christians, Bible study groups, and anyone interested in leadership, humility, and spiritual gifts. Join us as we explore how to live humbly, serve faithfully, and make an eternal impact for God's glory.

We pray that you are blessed by the message!
