Humility - The Mark Of Growth by Zac Poonen
Summary
The central message is that true spiritual growth is measured by emulating the profound humility of Jesus Christ, rather than by worldly achievements or perceived status.

Therefore, believers must reject the tendency to boast in lineage or accomplishments, focusing instead on Christ's selfless humility.
