Richard Foster & Brenda Quinn | Learning Humility | Steve Brown, Etc. | Key Life

It may be the most important virtue of our time – and it's vanishing. This week, Steve and the gang talk to authors Richard Foster and Brenda Quinn about the importance of – and misunderstandings about – this endangered ideal. Richard and Brenda's new book is called "Learning Humility: A Year of Searching For a Vanishing Virtue" (https://amzn.to/3uEQNlz – @InterVarsityPress).
