He includes six practical things you can start doing today in order to grow more humble, and he gives you tips on how you can become more honest with yourself and gain true self-knowledge — so that you can begin to make real progress in eradicating sin from your life and giving yourself to God.

Humility is not optional, and of all the virtues it’s the trickiest to master. With this guide, you have a fighting chance!
