Synopsis

Don't Let the Shadow of Envy Color Your JoyYou know that feeling, don't you? That heart sting when someone else receives the very thing you desire. When your best friend announces her engagement. When your sister says she's pregnant. When your coworker gets the promotion. You tell yourself you're happy for her, but something casts a shadow. That something is envy.What if, in those moments, you were able to turn away from the green glow of envy, and see the spotlight of God's glory shine on your friend? What if your first response was joy?Join Tilly Dillehay as she uncovers seven common sources of envy and challenges you to change the way you think about God's glory. In doing so, you will learn to rejoice with others, you will experience greater contentment, and you will discover how to truly love your neighbor as yourself.

Highly recommend! Envy is a sin no one really talks about, and this book was an eye opener. Also, Tilly Dillehay has a beautiful voice, and listening to her read her own book was quite enjoyable.......more

Goodreads review by Jen on April 10, 2019

The only reason I didn’t give five stars is because I thought the book wasn’t quite as comprehensive (about depravity)as it could have been. If I could, I’d give 4.5.
