Synopsis

Do you constantly compare yourself with others? On social media, in your neighborhood, at church, or in the school drop-off lane, do you push yourself to prove that you measure up . . . and then feel ashamed when you don’t? Measuring yourself against others isn’t healthy. And it isn’t God’s plan. In fact, the way of Jesus is completely upside down from this measure-up world. He invites us to follow him and be restored to freedom, confidence, and joy.

Join Shannon Popkin as she shares what she has discovered about her own measure-up fears and get-ahead pride. With her trademark humor and straightforward honesty, she’s created this six-week Bible study to explore the conversations Jesus had and the stories he shared with people who--like us--were comparing themselves.

Leave measure-up comparison behind and connect with those around you by choosing Jesus’s me-free way of living: lifting others up and pouring yourself out!

Have you ever been made fun of, judged, and talked about because you didn't measure up to someone else especially their achievements in life? Like the awards they get, how a lot of people follow a certain person in high school around making fun of others because of their station in life. I've had th......more

I am a Comparison Girl. I didn’t know it until I found myself in these pages. Shannon expertly and biblically walks us through several markers and mistakes of living according to comparison and gently points us to a better way. Written with humor and brutal honesty, Shannon sheds pretense and fights......more

Goodreads review by Amanda on July 20, 2023

There are so many good and helpful thoughts in this book. I need the reminder of if my focus is on my “spout” (what I pour out to others) or my “lines” (how I measure up, focus on self). It’s hard to always realize when comparison is creeping in, but her points about comparison and pride keeping us f......more

"It settled my heart to know that greatness wasn't tied to a paycheck or title." ~ Shannon Popkin For as long as I can remember, I have compared who I am to everyone else. Being raised by a mother who only strived for more, for better. I quickly learned I would never measure up. Comparison Girl show......more
