Although all the sessions have been great, I thought that this session was far and away the best one so far. Craig Groeschel, the Senior Pastor of Life Church (which has more locations than I can keep up with) spokeHere is what he shared with us:

• Becoming obsessed with what people think about you is the quickest way to forget what God thinks about you.
• People pleasers take most criticism personally
• People pleasers feel an extraordinary fear of rejection
• People pleasers find it hard to express their true feelings
• People pleasers have a hard time saying, “no”
• People pleasing is a form of idolatry
• The fear of God is best antidote for the fear of people.

There was so much more to this teaching than I could write down and communicate, but it was awesome!
