SHE  with Jordan Lee Dooley

The Gospel of Self-Improvement and the Gospel of Grace (Ft. Ruth Chou Simmons)


Listen Later

Women right now have more opportunities and more access to information, encouragement, and self-help tools than ever before… and yet, we’re still exhausted and feel like we don’t measure up.

Maybe the reason we’re so exhausted is that we’re striving, fueled by the wrong thing, trying to gain something that we don’t trust God for.

In this episode, Jordan talks with author, speaker, and artist Ruth Chou Simons about how to replace the gospel of self-improvement with the gospel of grace,

If you’re ready to let go of trying so dang hard and trying to measure up, then this episode will help you find the grace and freedom you need.

So make sure you grab a pen and paper (you’re gonna take notes!), and tune in to learn:

  • The difference between striving and being a good steward
  • What the gospel of self-improvement teaches us vs. what the Bible actually says
  • How to recognize when setting goals become the measure of your self-worth
  • The importance of letting go of striving and trusting God with your dreams
  • The role personal growth plays in our faith
