Let's talk about the trap of trying to be the perfect Christian. Striving to be more like Jesus is a great thing until it isn't. When you fall into the perfection trap, it's no longer about sanctification. It's about chasing the impossible.  In this episode, I'm talking about how the perfection trap stems from spiritual bypassing, why it's dangerous, the problem with the way some Christians view emotions, plus the importance of authentic faith.   ____________________________________________________________ 🎁⁣Free gift: Journal Your Feelings Roadmap: <a href='https://latoyaedwards.net/guide'>https://latoyaedwards.net/guide</a> ⭐️Join the FB community: <a href='https://latoyaedwards.net/community'>https://latoyaedwards.net/community</a> ☕️Work with LaToya: Schedule an Emotional Reset session: <a href='https://womenfindinggod.com/private-coaching'>https://latoyaedwards.net/coaching</a> Ready to stop running away from your feelings or pushing them down because you don't know what to do with them?
