About this episode

Steve Backlund encourages listeners to elevate their beliefs and avoid negative emotions by reflecting on biblical characters.

We are all tempted to be ”small” on the inside of ourselves (offended, jealous, envious, selfish, entitled, etc) like the Bible characters of Cain, Joseph’s brothers, King Saul, and the Pharisees during Jesus’ ministry. In this message, Steve Backlund inspires us to go higher in our beliefs when others are experiencing what we want.
