Most of us would agree that humility is an important virtue. But being humble is also one of the most misunderstood character traits. Many of us think of a humble person as someone who is meek or quiet. Or someone who doesn’t think too highly of themselves. In today’s episode, host Yael Eckstein unpacks what it means to be humble by looking at Moses, who Scripture describes as “more humble than anyone else” (Numbers 12:3). As we well know, Moses certainly wasn’t meek or lacked the confidence to be a leader. What we will discover is that you don’t have to downplay your strengths or belittle yourself to be humble. Instead, you should boldly recognize how special you are — how special God made you to be — and share it with the people around you. As we’ll learn, true humility rests in our ability to recognize that our strengths come from God — and from that knowledge flows joy, courage, and healthy self-esteem.
