570 // Why Trying to Be Perfect Will Exhaust You—and How God’s Grace Sets You Free (Bible Study and Devotional)


Listen Later

Hey Sis! 🎙️

Today’s episode is a much-needed reminder that our worth is not in our perfection, but in Christ alone. We’re finishing our study of Galatians 1:6–10, pausing on Paul’s powerful words in verse 10 about living for God’s approval instead of people’s applause. Alongside this, we close out the devotional Identity by North Point Community Church with the beautiful truth from Ephesians 2:8—that we are saved by grace, not by works, and we don’t have to earn God’s love by appearing flawless.

If you’ve ever wrestled with perfectionism, people-pleasing, or the weight of feeling like you’re never enough, this episode will encourage you to rest in the freedom of God’s grace. You’ll be reminded that your value and security aren’t found in how well you perform or how polished your life looks, but in being a beloved child of God.

🎧 Listen in, and don’t forget to grab the journal prompt to help you stay rooted in faith this week.
