“This is a gem of a book, filled with wisdom. Ed traces the silent thread of humility (or its lack) through our sins and our virtues. It might be written for men, but it's for everyone!”Paul E. Miller, Author of A Praying Church and J-Curve: Dying and Rising With Christ in Everyday Life“In a world where humility often feels scarce, Ed Welch offers men a rich, grace-filled invitation to rediscover this vital virtue. Drawing from years of counseling experience and deep biblical insight, he helps readers see humility not as weakness but as Christlikeness—continually lifting our eyes to Jesus, the true model of a humble heart.”Jonathan D. Holmes, Interim Executive Director, CCEF“These devotional reflections on humility are vintage Ed Welch. In this book, familiar Scriptures speak with fresh urgency and clarity and the many vivid stories bring theology to life. Things we thought we knew about pride and humility are revisited in ways that draw us into personal engagement with Christ. This is a humility project that will bless everyone’s soul.”Steve Midgley, Executive Director, Biblical Counselling UK“Ed Welch shepherds us gently toward our humble Savior. Through vivid portraits of God’s humility, the Spirit stirred my heart and challenged my pride, freeing me to love more deeply. This devotional is a timely gift to the church—inviting us to slow down, listen, and live more like the One who is gentle and lowly in heart.”Robert K. Cheong, Executive Director, Gospel Care Ministries; author of Restore: Changing How We Live and Love and Restoration Story: Why Jesus Matters in a Broken World“In four short pages a day, take a journey toward the freedom only humility can bring: freedom from pride, from insecurity, and from the torment of comparative thinking. Take the challenge—you won't regret it. The Humility Project for Men makes the route clear. Day by day, Ed Welch takes you down the path that will make you more like Christ.”Brad Hambrick, Pastor of Counseling, The Summit Church; author of Transformative Friendships“Sometimes you need someone to reframe something for you—to give you a new way of seeing it. This is what Ed Welch does in The Humility Project for Men, and it’s a gift. This little book takes a concept that you thought you understood and makes it three-dimensional.”Marc Davis, Associate Area Director for Renewal, Serge“On this daily walk, Ed Welch offers wise love at its finest. The nastiness of pride is unmasked, and the manliness of humility is unveiled. Best of all, Jesus gets the praise for remaking us to be settled and strong under him. I can’t wait to invite the men I shepherd to join me on this path. Thank you, Ed, for living and mapping the way.”Greg Norfleet, Director of Counseling Ministry, Briarwood Presbyterian Church“Rather than reading mere words on a page, imagine Ed is in the room with you as gentle, tender father leading and helping you draw near to the humility of Christ. While pride is always lurking and luring us, it is the humility of Christ that truly captures the heart. Humility is the way of the Christian because it is the way of Christ.”Nathan Sawyer, Pastor, Grace Church Memphis; online instructor, CCEF
