Summary

No one is perfect ... Yet so many of us try to be! But God has better for us than the exhausted pace we’ve been running at, and it begins with bowing low in humility.

Today's episode is part of an ongoing series titled "Ask a Theologian" — conversations with Proverbs 31 Ministries' Director of Theological Research, Dr. Joel Muddamalle, and Content Manager for Lysa TerKeurst, Shae Hill. In every episode, Joel and Shae will tackle everyday questions with theological insight and practical takeaways.
