Episode Description

How do you respond to other people's success?

Our culture teaches us to make everything a competition. Where we are in life, our career, our family, homes, cars, etc. How do we compare to those around us? It's a constant challenge to avoid the comparison trap.

Griffin takes us through our last message on King Saul when he has to deal with this issue. Everyone is singing the praises of David and Saul's jealousy takes over.

Envy and jealousy create so many challenges for us in our journey of following Jesus. Listen and hear how God calls us beyond them to pursue unity and connection with one another.
