When we take inventory of all the pieces that make us whole, it is unlikely they are all thriving at the same time. In this episode, we talk about how to seek God’s guidance when we feel lacking, and how to trust Him with a child-like faith. We all feel pressure to a different degree. When that happens, our identities can become tied to our achievements. But know this: God is after a relationship with you. He doesn’t want you to do more or achieve more.

Are you ok? We all would love to have a quick answer when someone asks us this, but life is not that simple.

Join us for 12 weeks, 24 episodes where we take an honest look at the parts of you and the God who makes us whole. I want to walk beside you in this tension and remind you what Scripture tells us that God wants for us. Forward this to your friends, gather your people, and process this in community.
