Self-compassion isn’t self-indulgence—it’s an invitation to see ourselves with the same grace, mercy, and patience that Jesus extends to us. Through the lens of God’s love, we can acknowledge our wounds without shame, extend kindness to ourselves in moments of failure, and embrace growth with gentleness instead of self-criticism.
In this episode, we explore what it means to meet ourselves with the same compassion Christ offers. We’ll discuss how our past experiences shape our self-perception, why gratitude for our survival strategies matters, and how patience in the journey of becoming our true selves reflects God’s heart for us.
Join us as we discuss:
- How God’s grace invites us into self-compassion
- The impact of wounds, gaps, and survival habits on our self-perception
- Why gratitude for past coping strategies fosters healing
- The difference between striving for worth vs. embracing our identity in Christ
- How to practice self-compassion in daily life
