Is Self Love … Selfish? - Candace's Podcast Season 11 Episode 7

I am going on tour for the first time ever this fall November 20th, 21st, 22nd, and 23rd in four special cities. Join me for laughs, games, Full House trivia, real conversations around women's wellness, and I'll be taking audience questions. Tickets and info at candace.com/tour - Atlanta is already sold out! What does it really mean to love and care for yourself as a follower of Jesus? In this powerful conversation, Candace and Lisa continue their discussion on the body as a temple, diving into the tension between self-love and God’s love. With honesty and vulnerability, they tackle the misconceptions the church and culture have fed us, and how only the love of God can give us true body freedom. Listener questions open the door to discussions on self-care, body goals, and how to root our choices in God’s Word. Candace also shares her own struggles around posting fitness content online and how she evaluates her motives through the lens of honoring God. Lisa offers wisdom on separating temporary highs from lasting freedom, and together they remind us that only God’s love can transform the way we see and treat our bodies.
