Few spiritual dangers are as subtle yet devastating as pride. In A Word About Pride, Puritan pastor and theologian Richard Baxter delivers a powerful, soul-searching message on the true nature of pride and its destructive influence on the Christian life. Drawing from Scripture, experience, and deep pastoral insight, Baxter exposes the many faces of pride—spiritual arrogance, self-reliance, vanity, and the craving for praise—and calls believers to walk humbly before God. Written in the unmistakable style of the Puritans, this timeless work remains shockingly relevant today. With clarity and conviction, Baxter points readers toward true humility, heartfelt repentance, and a renewed dependence on the grace of Christ. A Word About Pride is a brief but weighty treatise, ideal for personal reflection, small groups, or devotional reading for those seeking to overcome self and glorify God. Richard Baxter (1615-1691) was an English Puritan church leader, poet, hymn-writer, theologian, and controversialist. Dean Stanley called him "the chief of English Protestant Schoolmen". After some false starts, he made his reputation by his ministry at Kidderminster, and at around the same time began a long and prolific career as theological writer. After the Restoration he refused preferment, while retaining a non-separatist Presbyterian approach, and became one of the most influential leaders of the nonconformists, spending time in prison.
