Status Anxiety
Know someone who makes more money than you do? Go to school with someone who’s smarter? More attractive? Better at sports? If you’re single, do you know anyone with a husband or wife totally "in love?" If you feel stuck in a marriage, do you know anyone who’s single and care-free? Have you struggled with infertility and know someone who’s having kids, one after another? Do you have kids, but know someone who has passive, compliant ones? Know anyone who has more square footage than you? Maybe even a garage – that they don’t even use for cars?
Of course you DO! And knowing and seeing them spurs feelings of ENVY inside of you.
In this message, Max Vanderpool unpacks how ENVY is the sin no one enjoys - and how deflate ENVY's power can get deflated in our hearts and minds.
