"So you think the idea of the 'Twelve Steps' is new? Well, if you think you've got a new idea, go back and see how the Greeks put it, or in this case how the Medieval Latins put it. St. Bernard of Clairvaux identified twelve steps up the mountain of pride in his work Steps of Humility and Pride."
In a recent two-part commentary, Monsignor Charles Pope (pastor of Holy Comforter-Saint Cyprian Parish,
Washington, DC) reflected on the Twelve Steps of Pride and the Twelve Steps of Humility as offered by Saint Bernard of Clairvaux.
