Have you ever caught yourself scrolling, wishing for someone else’s life? Feeling behind, less than, or invisible? In today’s episode, we’re talking all about comparison, the silent trap that robs us of joy, contentment, and our God given identity. We’ll break down how the enemy uses envy to distract us, how we often idolize others’ lives, and how to find freedom by embracing your unique calling in Christ.
We’ll unpack how living set apart isn’t about chasing success, flaunting things, or making our name great, but about making His name known.
