Avoiding the Comparison Trap (with Dr. Mario Sacasa)
Manage episode 470008888 series 2323093
In today's competitive society, it's easy to fall into the comparison trap. Dr. Mario Sacasa joins Fr. Josh to explore the sin of envy through the lens of evolutionary psychology and the teachings of St. Thérèse of Lisieux. Together, they answer a question about how to find peace with the reality that others may be "better" than us in certain areas. They also provide practical advice on embracing our unique place within the body of Christ.

We all can't be the roses, but the roses don't take away from the wildflowers in the garden.
