Without knowledge of self, there is no knowledge of God. Our wisdom, insofar as it ought to be deemed true and solid wisdom consists almost entirely of two parts: the knowledge of God and the knowledge of ourselves.
Ever feel like you're drifting through relationships without truly connecting? In this episode of 'Relational Recovery', Wes Thompson and Austin Hill dive into the fourth part of their enlightening series on self-awareness. They argue that knowing yourself is not about seeking validation but about understanding your own quirks, struggles, and reactions. This deeper self-knowledge is the bedrock for forming genuine, lasting relationships.
Wes and Austin highlight that true friends are those who celebrate your joys, share in your sorrows, and challenge you when needed. They caution against surrounding yourself with people who only affirm your decisions, even if they're not in your best interest. Instead, they suggest seeking feedback from those who have known you for a long time. It’s about listening without excuses and understanding how others experience you.
Drawing from John Calvin's teachings, they explain that self-awareness is crucial in understanding what to give to God and what to sacrifice. This episode is a heartfelt guide to deepening your relationships by first understanding yourself. Tune in to learn how self-awareness can transform your connections and enrich your recovery journey.
