Publisher's summary

Do you ever find yourself stuck in the comparison trap?

Speaker and author Richella Parham knows what this feels like. “I couldn’t break free from admiring one person’s achievements, someone else’s personality, another’s skills, yet another’s relationships. And don’t get me started on how I looked at other people’s appearances”, she writes. “I was haunted by the admirable attributes of other people, certain that I could never match their worthiness. No matter how well-intentioned the teaching or pithy the advice, I found that most of it didn’t help me change my thoughts, feelings, or actions.”

While there are no easy answers, Parham has identified cultural and spiritual myths about others, God, and ourselves that keep us trapped. From there the journey is a spiritual one. We can pick up practices that help us walk in the freedom of Christ with confidence in ourselves. If you’ve ever suffered from tortured moments of comparison on Facebook, in the office, or in the hallway at church, you’ll benefit from this fresh perspective.

Blessed deeply

The words in this book have been soul changing and life giving-Teaching lessons that have caused me to find joy where I used to feel angst and continually seek more of Jesus.
Richella’s reading of her book is moving. She opens the door for listeners to cry along with her as feelings pour forth. Her reading is genuine and allowed me to feel like I was sipping a cup of tea with her at a kitchen table as she read.
God bless you as you hear these words. Richella, thank you for speaking these truths.
