Is Self-Help Enough?

 Our world today is enamored with self-help books. There are countless options for learning how to do or overcome just about everything. It seems to be removing the need to meet in person, take classes, or seek advice/help from someone else. It bears the concept at least of people becoming autonomous, needing help from no one. Some of these options are great to be sure, but is it enough? Is self-help all we need? Can we really solve all of our own problems?

True Virtue: Humility

Humility is one of the most difficult virtues. It is something that most people don’t even like let alone aspire to. It is completely contrary to the world and something avoided altogether in our me-first society. So it may seem odd that it is even necessary to define true humility in a place that doesn’t want any kind of humility at all, but there is a counterfeit and it is important to know the difference.
