Superb. In a world that magnifies self magnification this book has been a greatly needed reminder for me. It is full of helpful, practical suggestions on how to strive toward humility. More than a just composing a treatise on the glory of humility Mahaney strives to remind you of the value God places on humility and motivate you far from the praising eyes of man. One section I found particularly "humbling" was a section of questions to ask yourself - and others too in the area of humbly seeking correction:
Do I confess my sin consistently?
Do I confess specific instances of sin and not just general categories or general references to sin?
Do others find it easy to correct me?
Do others know the areas of temptation in my life at present?
Do they know the most pronounced patterns of sin in my life at present?
