36. Self-Made Perfectionism vs. Perfected in Christ

from Walk Beside Me · host Brooklyn & Trenton Bird

Today I'm sharing some recent reflections on perfectionism, a condition I've dealt with my whole life.Becoming a parent has shown me the dangers of perfectionism. Yet I realized recently that pursuing perfection or excellence isn't the problem.The problem is thinking you can make yourself perfect on your own, and letting your own (or the world's) definition of perfection guide you.In this episode, I'm unpacking how we can let Christ perfect every moment, which will turn the pursuit of perfection from arduous to life-giving.Scripture References:​Matthew 21:31​Matthew 5:48​Matthew 5:20​Moroni 10:32​2 Nephi 32:9
