You’d start with a strong spiritual foundation, throw in a hearty sprinkling of egotism, and then finally, a failure to see the big picture. Poof! You’ve got a pharisee.

CloseWhen Hezekiah showed the Babylonian envoys "all that was in his house," he thought he was showing his strength. In reality, all he proved was how naive he was to think that same action wouldn't come back to bite him. Yet we don't need storehouses to do the same, do we? That's what social media is for! But where's the line between us sharing our excitement for something and it coming off as pride -- the very thing that Hezekiah was guilty of? Unfortunately, only you know that line, but maybe Hezekiah's story can help us figure it out.
