“I am gentle and humble in heart” (Matthew 11:29). This is how Jesus describes himself. They are two of his defining characteristics. If these things are so important, then how can we be more gentle and humble? Particularly if this means being counter-cultural?
Drawing on real workplace examples, Biblical wisdom, and personal reflection, this conversation explores how we can become brilliant at humility (humour helps with humility!)
