Category: Humility

Humility is not thinking less of yourself but thinking of yourself less, and of Christ more. These quotes expose pride and commend the lowliness of the Savior who washed his disciples’ feet. John Newton is by far the most quoted writer here, followed by Wilhelmus à Brakel, J.C. Ryle and C.S. Lewis.
