On this episode of This vs. That, we chat with Ronnie Martin, about the difference between self-awareness and navel gazing. Ronnie shares his personal experience with introspection and how he combats its tendency to become all-consuming. From intentional curiosity in other people's lives to prayer and discernment, we discuss practical tips for cultivating godly self-awareness. We also discuss the importance of humility, the role of spiritual disciplines, and taking the first step towards self-awareness. Join us for a thoughtful conversation on this important topic.

Ronnie Martin is the lead pastor of Substance Church in Ashland, Ohio. He is also the author of the Advent Devotional the The God Who Is with Us: 25-Day Devotional for Advent and a co-host of The Happy Rant podcast.
