More than any other time of the year, Ramadan is an excellent opportunity to see yourself for who you really are, warts and all. This can and should create a healthy sense of guilt if you've spent the year neglecting your soul through sin or by neglecting your prayers and other required acts of worship. But that guilt can turn into an unhealthy shame when we allow our worst choices to define our identity, and worse, when we imagine God sees us the way we see ourselves. In this episode, Theresa and Kaighla advise us on the importance of forgiving ourselves for the choices we've made, remind us that we are more than our worst choices, and explain the key difference between guilt (which is good) and shame (which is really, really bad).
