The first instinct is sarcasm and Chase turns to the story of Cain to demonstrate why humility and meekness are critical for growth.

David is known as the Man after God’s own heart, but his life is really a complicated battle between integrity and reputation. Chase demonstrates why the instinct to protect your reputation can be so destructive.
