Finding Acceptance in a Culture of Comparison: Heather Holleman
Do you ever feel like you’re fighting for a seat at the table—striving for approval or battling comparison? Dr. Heather Holleman shares how one verb from Scripture transformed her perspective and set her free from jealousy, insecurity, and shame. Drawing from her book Seated with Christ: Living Freely in a Culture of Comparison, Heather shows us the freedom of knowing we already belong. Through her own stories of struggle and hope, she paints a picture of true acceptance and purpose. If you’ve ever wrestled with comparison or questioned your worth, this episode will remind you of a beautiful truth: you already have a seat at the table with Jesus.
