S5E12 Show Notes: A Little Humility Goes a Long Way with Chelsey DeMatteis

by | Mar 21, 2023 | The Love Offering Podcast Show Notes

When we truly understand who Christ is, our self-importance melts away. This is true humility, the basis for greatness in any work we do for the Lord. But how do we live a life more focused on Christ in a me-centered world? Chelsey DeMatteis is on the show sharing about her book More of Him, Less of Me. In today’s episode, Chelsey points us to the cross and away from the trap of our self-centered culture. Join us to encounter a shift in the way you see the world and how God sees you. Your lens will go from a “me” perspective to a Kingdom perspective. Your heart will be shaped by the truth from God’s word and the overflow will cause others to lean in, listen, and desire a life of more Jesus!
