How Comparison is Toxic to Your Soul

Inside today’s Podcast, I have with me Richella Parham.  She is a wife, mother, writer, and author of the award-winning book, Mythical Me. I’m so blessed to have her here today because I know she has a lot of great encouragement and practical application for us on how to stop the habit of comparison. Comparison is usually a very big component of perfectionism. It’s that constant evaluation of ourselves against the standards of this world. Are we measuring up? Can we try harder? Will we ever be enough? Believe it or not, these thoughts and questions we ask ourselves hinder us in our God-given purpose. We live less than we were created for while attempting to be more.

I love this episode so much.  The conversation is rich with beauty and truth.
