This is the third installment in Eric Ludy’s epic summer Daily Thunder series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW1. This particular episode contrasts two key individuals in the early twentieth century demonstrating the importance of humility and the devastation of pride. Both of these men were kings and both desired the favor of France. Edward VII, the King of England, sought it through lowness, honor, and respect.
