The Importance of Courage
The concept of courage and humility in relation to pride is deeply ingrained in theological discourse. It involves the idea of overcoming selfishness and turning away from self-centeredness towards a focus on God. The theologians like Luther, Calvin, and Augustine have all highlighted the detrimental effects of pride, emphasizing the need to redirect our love towards God. While the notion of acknowledging one's flaws and faults is important, it is equally essential to approach individuals in a compassionate and constructive manner, rather than utilizing shame and guilt as motivational tools.
