Perfectionism is one of the most common struggles Christian writers face. It often shows up in two ways: the belief that our writing must be perfect before we can publish it, and the belief that our lives must be perfect before we can minister to others.In this episode, I unpack both sides of perfectionism and show how these lies can keep us from stepping into the calling God has given us. You’ll discover:* Why “perfect writing” is an impossible, ever-moving target* The difference between doing your best for God’s glory and being paralyzed by unrealistic standards* How God uses imperfect people (and imperfect writing) to impact livesIf you’ve ever delayed publishing, doubted your ability to serve others, or felt unworthy because of your imperfections, this episode will encourage you to release those lies and trust God to use your words—even when they aren’t perfect.Resources & Links:* <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amylynnsimon.com/purposeful-pen-podcast/episode-60-overcoming-perfectionism-part-2-with-cheryl-balcom">Listen to Episode 60:</a> Interview with Cheryl Balcom on PerfectionismThe Purposeful Pen is a weekly podcast for Christian writers designed to help you build a writing life with eternal impact.
