The late Dave Thomas, founder of the Wendy’s Restaurant chain, illustrates the learning value of humility in his book Well Done: The Common Guy’s Guide to Everyday Success.  He wrote, “I got my M.B.A. long before my G.E.D. I even have a photograph of me in my M.B.A. graduation outfit – a snazzy knee length work apron. I guarantee you that I’m the only founder among America’s big companies whose picture in the corporate annual report shows him wielding a mop and a plastic bucket. That wasn’t a gag. It was a case of leading by example. At Wendy’s, M.B.A. does not mean Master of Business Administration. It means Mop Bucket Attitude. It’s how we define satisfying the customer through cleanliness, quality food, friendly service, and atmosphere.”

That sounds like humility.

But what does the Bible say humility is?
