Summary
The temptation of popularity. Proverbs 18:12 "Before destruction the heart of a man is haughty, And before honor is humility." The forgotten story of how pride destroyed Gideon and the people around him. Gideon got lazy and pride crept in. Many unelected "gatekeepers" influence policy hiding in plain site. Beware of those who want power but don't take responsibilities.
