Perfectionism vs. Order
In this episode, we dig into the difference between living with healthy order and falling into the trap of perfectionism. Order, when rooted in wisdom and balance, brings peace and freedom. Perfectionism, however, often leaves us anxious, paralyzed, and robbed of joy. Together, we explore how to recognize the warning signs when order slips into perfectionism, how this struggle can distort our view of God, ourselves, and others, and what it looks like for students (and adults!) to pursue order in practical ways. We also share personal stories, biblical examples, and encouragement for how to strive for excellence without being enslaved to impossible standards. Finally, we leave you with a challenge to notice where perfectionism is creeping in this week—and to invite God’s grace to bring peace instead.
