Building God's Kingdom Together: Breaking the Habit of Comparison w/ Jenn Schultz
03/14/24 • 45 min
Have you ever felt like you're in a never-ending battle with comparison and self-doubt? Jenn Schultz, the compassionate author behind "She's Not Your Enemy," joins us to share her journey from a people-pleaser trapped in the pursuit of perfection to someone who's found her true worth through faith. Together, we navigate the treacherous undercurrents of insecurity, jealousy, and loneliness - all while learning to anchor ourselves in the truth of who we are in God's eyes.
Scripture offers us a sanctuary, a place where we can silence the noise of comparison and hear the voice of our truest ally. In our deep and vulnerable conversation, Jenn and I discuss the strength we can draw from passages like Psalm 103 and Ephesians 1, using them as a compass to guide our way back to our true identity. We also examine the Armor of God, not as a suit for battle against our peers, but as a reminder to stand firm against the real challenges of life, enveloping ourselves in compassion and understanding for those around us.
Ending on a note of hope and joy, we consider the power of faith to overcome rejection and conflict, finding fulfillment in the communities we build and the roles we play within God's Kingdom.

The Gift of Limitations: Finding the Beauty in Boundaries w/ Sara Hagerty
Have you ever wrestled with the constraints life throws at you or experienced limitations that seem to fence you in? Wondering where grace fits into the picture and asking the question, are there blessings in the boundaries of our lives? Sara Hagerty, a writer of deep insight and experience, joins us in a profound exploration of finding peace amidst boundaries of personal trials, from infertility to the challenges of understanding God's love in times of stillness. Her candid stories serve as a testament to the surprising ways grace manifests in our lives, especially when we're grappling with the weight of feeling we have too much and yet not enough.
Sarah and I discuss the importance of honoring our limits, in everything we do from physical activities to finances to parenting. Through her story of ambition clashing with reality, we shed light on the realism in navigating life's challenges—a journey not just about reaching goals but also learning from the detours.
In the final segment, we delve into the connection between our emotions, self-awareness, and the pace at which we live our lives. Our conversation invites listeners to slow down, listen to the signals of our limitations, and discover the power of presence in the narratives unfolding in our lives.
Join Sara and me for a conversation that will not only move you but might also reshape the way you view the quiet spaces where grace resides.
