Nona Jones: Killing Comparison

Social comparison feeds our insecurities, but God’s Word offers candid wisdom for rejecting toxic thinking.

Kicking off this week's episode, on #Blessed Heather brings in her best friend Scarlett Longstreet to discuss the new option on Instagram of paying for subscription.
