What can happen when we tie our identity to our outcomes? Many of us who listen to this podcast are very goal-oriented, not only that, but we may tend to want to overachieve. What can happen is that we are human! We may not hit a goal at the same time we used to. We may not be in the same season of life that we were once in, so we end up comparing ourselves to ourselves! Today's guest Chad Everett talks about how obedience over outcomes can help us to stay focused on God's plan for us, God's timing.
