Do Nothing Out of Selfish Ambition

Hello Beloved!

In our hustle, busy, work work work culture we know all about ambition. Ambition is an applauded characteristic of an individual that we many times associate with success and riches. This determination to achieve is not all bad. However, as we'll learn, Paul does not warn us against ambition, but selfish ambition. Learn why selfish ambition does not lead to joy and how to maintain a spiritually healthy level of ambition in this week's video.

Comment on this week’s video and let me know how you can use your ambition for the glory of God. As an ambitious woman myself,  I'm looking forward to chatting more on this topic.

NEXT WEEK

Next week we'll discuss why humility leads to joy. I've learned, however, that many don't have a clear understanding of Biblical humility. So we'll earn from the example of Jesus how to live humble lives that lead to joy.
