What would Jesus say about your efforts to get healthy? When you wake up in the morning, is your first thought about what you ate the night before? Has your lifelong obsession been to finally like what you see in the mirror?

With the launch of Comparison Girl for Teens, I've invited a number of guests to join me on the Live Like It's True podcast, to talk through various ways we tend to compare ourselves and what Jesus has to say about it. In this episode, we are comparing our skin-deep packaging. Often we're not only comparing our appearances with others; we're comparing ourselves against what we're "supposed" to look like.

Guest: Heather Creekmore

Bible Passage: Whitewashed Tombs - Matthew 23:27-28
