How to Be (Un)Successful: A Conversation with Pete Portal


Listen Later

Nowadays it seems like everyone wants to be “successful”—but how many of us actually feel it?

We may know that true success is found in following the One who made us. And yet, in our increasingly polarized and comparison-rife world, many of us find our hearts yearning for an ever-elusive kind of success: in money, power, influence, or accolades.

My guest on this week’s episode of The Love Offering Podcast, Pete Portal, helps us reframe our understanding of what it means to flourish. In his new book, How to Be (Un)Successful: An Unlikely Guide to Human Flourishing, Pete invites us to consider that success is not about what we have—but about how we live.

This conversation is an opportunity to redefine success, choosing:
* Love over efficiency
* Depth over volume
* Real friendship over cold transactions

Jesus’ life and teaching are the perfect antidote for a world sick with the wrong sort of success. And He invites us again to experience a success that truly satisfies our souls.

I pray this episode encourages you to live a life of flourishing, right where you are.

With love,
Rachael
