Why does the Christian faith and practise discourage self praise behaviour? Although self praise in the western culture might be a good thing to do, the problem of self praise is that the focus is on us, our achievements, and our good work. Self-praise can lead to arrogance, resentment from others, and even depression, making it important to be mindful and judicious in self-appreciation. As followers of Jesus, we are encouraged to serve, admire, and love others as Jesus did.
