Everyday Humility: Twelve Humble Steps Into a Life of Joy

by David Robinson

Everyday Twelve Humble Steps into a Life of Joy invites you to discover a life of joy by learning to walk in the way of genuine humility. Humility and joy grow best when we engage in life-giving, down-to-earth practices, such as the twelve steps presented in Everyday go outside, step aside, be mentored, make music, walk in a relaxed manner, love simplicity, cultivate gratitude, offer hospitality, love silence, become childlike, speak gently, and live humbly. Through such down-to-earth ways of living, humility and joy develop in a person's life. Everyday Humility explores Jesus' way of humility and joy, rooted in the ancient writings of St. Benedict, especially in chapter seven of The Rule on twelve steps of humility. Down-to-earth humility grows from a spiritual life rooted in the good earth of Christ's love, developing an authentic spiritual life that is personal, real, and earthy. Everyday humility leads to delight and a life of joy. Everyday Humility also connects with the twelve steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, providing a twelve-step, year-long, month-by-month resource that meets the needs of people who seek God and who seek a life of greater joy. This resource may be used in ministry contexts, such as with home groups, small groups, twelve-step sponsor groups, or leadership team development, as well as individual faith development over a period of a full year of journeying into a life of greater humility and joy.
