"And Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people..." (Neh. 8:5) Thanks for listening to my podcast of sermons, including new material and some of my archived messages from when I preached at other congregations in the past. You can find the church where I currently preach at www.springschurchofchrist.org.
The 175-year-old hymn, "Night with Ebon Pinion," uses strange choices of words to paint a picture of the oppressive darkness under which Jesus found himself praying in the Garden of Gethsemane on the night of his betrayal, arrest, and crucifixion. This talk attempts to elucidate the meaning of the hymn's lyrics and paint the picture of the scene which they describe.

Why Should I Have To Be Humble?
Humility just fits us. Pride is out of place in so many realms of life, but humility helps us in every way. As creatures before our creator, as sinners before a holy God, and as saints before our Savior, we have every reason to live in meekness.

Jesus' Humility
"Humble pie is not always bitter when it's made by God's recipe."
This message illuminates the splendor and joy of Christ's humility in his whole life; that he was submissive to God and mankind in spite of the fact that he was God himself. He sets the template for the ideal version of humility — a thing that ought to define every Christian.
This is the beginning of a series, titled Humility and Absolute Surrender, based on Andrew Murray's writings under the same title.
