Beyond Self-Esteem: Finding Worth in Christ :: [Ep. 264]

Last week, we started the conversation about Self-Worth and Self-Esteem. This week, we are concluding that conversation. In this episode, we are learning just how a biblical perspective on self-worth can transform hearts and marriages. Rather than embracing the world's definition of self-esteem, we are discovering that our true value comes from being made in God's image and chosen by Him.

We will cover the following:

• Satan manipulates our self-perception to damage our marriages, convincing us we deserve better than our spouse
• The "I am who I am" mentality creates a false comfort zone that prevents growth and transformation in relationships
• Biblical confidence means thinking of ourselves less rather than thinking less of ourselves
• How to transition from being "puffed up" to being "filled up" with God's truth and how that transforms how we serve our spouse

For further study on this topic, listen to our previous broadcasts titled "Idols of the Heart," read John 13, 1 Corinthians, or Tim Keller's "The Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness."

Happy listening!!

When "Be Yourself" Backfires: A Christian Perspective on Self-Worth :: [Ep. 263]

Self-esteem is a concept that is celebrated by our culture but may be leading us away from God's design for our lives and marriages. God calls us to find our worth and our confidence in His love and design for us, not in our uniqueness or accomplishments.

In this episode, we will cover the following:
• Self-esteem is based on comparison and puts our focus on ourselves instead of God and others
• The Bible never instructs us to focus on self-love - it assumes we already do this naturally
• Jesus demonstrated his understanding of worth through service and sacrifice, not self-focus
• The true measure of our worth

Join us today! And come back again next week for part two of this series as we dig deeper into what the Bible says about self-worth, pride, humility, and how these concepts affect our marriages.
