Have you ever marveled at the paradox of how our greatest strengths can also serve as our heaviest burdens? We've all had those moments where we've put on a mask to fit into the world's expectations, hiding away our authentic selves. My mentor, John Eldridge, and I had an illuminating journey into this realm of self-discovery. John shared his vision of a future filled with God's work and emphasized the importance of being shepherds after God's heart. Our dialogue became an intimate prayer session, inviting divine wisdom to guide us and reveal our hidden selves.

We didn't stop there, diving deeper into exploring the human tendency to dim our lights and cover our faces. What's up with these personas we wear, and how do they stop us from connecting genuinely with our loved ones and God? John and I discuss how to differentiate between our public facades and our real selves. This episode concludes with a forceful call to let down your guard, inviting a deeper connection with others and God. So, join us on this soul-awakening journey, uncover your mask, and embrace your authentic self. It's time to shine!
