It's very easy to feel like we are truly valuable when we achieve success, or at least are seen as successful by other people. This can be a pretty painful pursuit, especially if life throws you various curve balls that can change your trajectory.

Have you ever read something in the bible that has made you confused or that you've found hard to understand?
This can sometimes be a tricky subject to talk about - but it's essential.
