Listen "Climbing the Ladder of Integrity"
Episode Synopsis
God has shaped and crafted each of us uniquely—with our own personality, thoughts, dreams, temperament, feelings, talents, gifts, and desires. Parker Palmer calls this the ‘true seeds of self,' which God has planted inside of each of us as He invites us to listen to Him and to live faithfully out of our true selves in Christ.
When we don’t live in alignment with what we truly believe, think, or feel—or when we ignore our values—we violate our integrity. Something inside of us dies when we stay silent about our values and preferences. God’s invitation is to an ongoing process of grounding our identity in His love and to learning how respectfully assert ourselves.
In this conversation, my clinical supervisor Carley and I explore a practice called climbing the ladder of integrity—a way of clarifying our values and living more fully into the person God has made us to be. Listen in.
