Our enemy uses comparison against us. He drives us to exhaustion trying to prove that we measure up, then shames us when we don’t. But Jesus came to restore our freedom, confidence, and joy.

In this six-week study, we’ll examine conversations Jesus had and stories he shared with people, who—like us—were comparing.
