Humility, while essential for conversion and sanctification, may be the least emphasized virtue. Farley alerts us to the problem and shows how ours is a humbling gospel, stressing the need for a ministry that promotes humility.

"In The Holiness of God, R.C. Sproul says that the reason he wrote a book on holiness was a deep awareness of his own lack of holiness. Similarly, William Farley wrote this book out of an awareness of his lack of humility. Though in recent years we have witnessed the release of several excellent titles on this subject, Gospel Powered Humility carefully grounds humility in the good news of the gospel. This is a book that will teach and convict every believer."
