For those who hate themselves- - Audio
from NextStepCC · host Edwin Colon
Hey family, Many of the horrors and the sorrows that we’ve experienced in our lives have been self-inflicted wounds. Things that we’ve done because we judged ourselves so harshly, we can only respond with negative actions. Some of the vicious words we say to ourselves we would never say to anyone else—because if we did, we’d have no friends to speak of. “You’re stupid. You’re ugly. You’ll never amount to anything. Why did you think you could do that? You’re so dumb.” All of these phrases have one thing in common, which is that they are narratives and scripts that we’ve developed throughout our lives and use on ourselves in an unconscious way—we don’t even realize we’re doing it. So the question is, how can we be free of self-hatred? That’s what we’re going to spend our time discussing this Sunday. The gospel has much to say about the self-hatred that we’ve struggled with our whole lives. Please bring your family and invite a friend.
