Instead, you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that.”
But as it is, you boast in your arrogance; all such boasting is evil. Therefore, to one who knows the right (good) thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin.
James 4:15-17 NASB1995

Boasting is a sin when speaking of oneself. It is drawing attention to oneself to be noticed, exalted.
But is it evil when we lift up another person by boasting about them? I suppose it could be if it’s done for selfish reasons. But what if it is done to encourage one’s walk with the Lord by pointing out God’s work in them. Boasting about God and His divine work in others and ourselves will encourage, teach, uplift as we learn from one another, giving all the glory to God.
Is that boasting without arrogance?
Paul said it best:
🌹Therefore in Christ Jesus I have found reason for boasting in things pertaining to God.
