About this episode
Have you ever caught yourself striving? Today's Say Yes season conversation with Ruth Chou Simons will do the incredible work of helping us all pinpoint what it is that causes us to work tirelessly and anxiously toward something. This is a breath of fresh air! With practical steps for recognizing striving and releasing stress, Ruth walks us through her story of accepting God's grace and shares how we can learn to trust Him to meet our deepest needs. If you are struggling to earn God and His gifts, this one is for you!
