Building God's Kingdom Together: Breaking the Habit of Comparison w/ Jenn Schultz

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.
