    One Step Closer S1E2 Abi Urton - Perfectionism and Making God Approachable

    Anna and Parker welcome award-winning vocalist Abi Urton for an honest conversation about perfectionism, comparison, and the pressures facing young people today. Abi shares how she learned that God doesn't expect us to have everything figured out all at once—and that true completeness is found in Jesus. Abi also opens up about her personal faith journey, from practicing religion because others expected her to, to living internationally and experiencing a variety of faith traditions, to discovering a personal relationship with God through Contemporary Christian Music. She reflects on how finding her own testimony transformed her understanding of worship and inspired deep gratitude for being free to choose to follow Jesus. She talks about making God more personally approachable and shifting to performing to inspire, not impress.
