The Personal Growth Dilemma

We are personal growth fans. We believe now more than ever that personal growth is vital for Christian leaders. The problem some believers find in some personal growth practices and advice is that some of the methods in personal growth circles run contrary to Scripture.

The “believe in yourself and accomplish your dreams” is probably one of the top, if not the top, supreme laws of personal growth. So why do we as believers struggle with this? Because we all know ourselves. We know, as followers of Christ, that the amount of belief in ourselves is not where the real power comes from. Our belief in Christ is where power and growth comes from.

Join Kyle and Cassie as they unpack the need for personal growth and how Christian leaders can filter personal growth methods through Scripture. You do not have to face a personal growth dilemma and God can use personal growth strategies for your good and His glory!

Lets be honest… one of the most frustrating responses in all of Christendom is when a well-meaning soul gives you the advice “you just need to give it to God” when you reveal to them that you have anxiety or worry about something that is happening or has happened.

They mean well… they really do, but when you are in the thick of it, that piece of advice feels so dismissive. Although, it is the right advice, often we do not have the biblical steps to actually release control of our fears and anxiety.

In this episode Kyle and Cassie discuss how to stop white knuckling your life by actually taking practical steps of releasing control of your situation. Kyle and Cassie discuss:

-Abiding with God
-Seeing His faithfulness in our past to help with our present situation.
-Discovering the attributes of God in His leading
-Walking in the promises of God

All these steps and more is what awaits in this episode as Kyle and Cassie unpak what it looks like to get off the rollercoaster of worry while securing our hope on the solid foundation of God’s desire to seek your good in all things.

The number one issue we talk about with every one of our clients with few exceptions is this lie we tell ourselves that “I am not enough” This statement may be one of the most debilitating thoughts that we can have because it questions one of the deepest core belief that we contain which is, “what is my purpose?” and “do I matter?”

There are three main factors discussed:

1. Identity

2. Performance Idol

3. Comparison Trap
