Overcoming a Critical Spirit featuring Shannon Kay McCoy

In Episode 73, we talk candidly about 4 ways a critical spirit can take root in your everyday life. In fact, I share a few of my own struggles in my marriage and in my actions where I wrestle with a spirit of criticism. Shannon Kay McCoy is a biblical counselor and new friend and helps us walk through this spirit of criticism that we can easily fall into or rationalize.    This important conversation also evolved into trying to define terms like self-love & self-care. We were both seeking to pin down where self-love could be Bibilcal and where is it outright sin. I was so glad for the healthy tension created in our conversation and how it sparked lots of questions to bring to the Lord.   Did you have a healthy dose of conviction when Shannon mentioned the four ways we can act with a critical spirit? I hope, like me, you'll be comforted by the scriptures mentioned and you'll see the freedom God wants for you from actions that are in opposition to His holiness. Do you feel the tug of the Lord gently reminding you that you don't need to control everything? Do you overshoot self-care into unholy self-love? It's truly a Constantly Under Construction process that requires leaning on the Lord continually.   Connect with Shannon: http://shannonkaymccoy.com/ https://www.biblicalcounselingcoalition.org/ http://www.counselinggrace.com/ https://ibcd.org/
