In this workshop, we learn about the vice of vainglory—both the patterns of its temptation to show off a false self and time-tested spiritual disciplines of resistance to this vice. In a world captivated with selfies and social media, we explore virtuous practices that can help Christians handle the limelight well and show appreciation for each other in ways that glorify God.
