Do you constantly compare yourself with others? On social media, in your neighborhood, at church, or in the school drop-off lane, do you push yourself to prove that you measure up . . . and then feel ashamed when you don't? Measuring yourself against others isn't healthy. And it isn't God's plan. In fact, the way of Jesus is completely upside down from this measure-up world. He invites us to follow him and be restored to freedom, confidence, and joy.
Join Shannon Popkin as she shares what she has discovered about her own measure-up fears and get-ahead pride. With her trademark humor and straightforward honesty, she's created this six-week Bible study to explore the conversations Jesus had and the stories he shared with people who--like us--were comparing themselves.
Leave measure-up comparison behind and connect with those around you by choosing Jesus's me-free way of living: lifting others up and pouring yourself out! Author and speaker, Shannon Popkin, loves to blend her gifts of humor and storytelling with her passion for God's Word. Shannon has been featured on FamilyLife Today, Proverbs 31 and Revive Our Hearts, and is a contributing blogger at ReviveOurHearts.com. Shannon's passion is to invite women to live like God's Word is true.
Shannon lives in west Michigan with her husband Ken, who makes her laugh every day. They have three amazing kids, plus two adorable shih tzus, who--unlike the kids--have no plans of moving out.
