Do you ever struggle with pretending to be someone you’re not? Or maybe you compare yourself to others and you’re trying to be like them, and once that happens then everyone will like you. You will now be chosen first, seen, and loved. 

In “The Huste For Likes,” Pastor James teaches us when we chase after likes, approval, and validation from others, we often lose sight of the love that’s already ours in Christ. The hustle ends when we stop performing for love and start living from it.
