In this social media age it's easy to get caught up in the "perfect image". While strides are being made to be more open and vulnerable online, it is hard to escape idealistic, and often unrealistic, expectations of what our day-to-day lives should look like. Our standards are constantly shifting, keeping us running a marathon that seems like it may never end. And when we trip on our path to the finish line the ground beneath us can seem more like quicksand than solid ground. What do we do when we trip? And how do we measure how far we've fallen? And whose yardstick are we using? There are a lot of questions surrounding failure and how to handle falling short. It can get even more confusing when there are difference voices and sources influencing the standards we feel compelled to meet. This episode Keith, Kiana, and special guest Anna Sumner discuss failure and falling short and how it has impacted their faith and lives as a whole.
