What people are saying
“A really helpful book for encouraging women to think about how they compare themselves to others, as well as finding the way out of such a comparison-driven life.”
Kathy Keller
Assistant Director of Communications at Redeemer Presbyterian Church, NY
“We all need help to take our eyes off the gifts we do or don't have, so that we can turn our gaze to the Gift-giver Himself. This book is a helpful guide for that process—it's compassionate, honest, and truthful.”
Carolyn McCulley
author of Radical Womanhood
“Sophie's honesty made me swallow hard, not because of what it told me about herself but what it revealed in me.”
Jane McNabb
author of Daylight at Midnight and conference speaker
“If you ever thought that recollecting that ‘there are so many others worse off than yourself’ is any kind of a cure for self-pity, then read this book.”
Ann Benton

Description
"I am a recovering Compulsive Comparison Syndrome sufferer. It causes me to feel envy, despair, pride and superiority. It cuts away at my relationship with God, with my loved ones, and with myself. It has promised me contentment, and yet robbed me of it.
And although I don't know you at all, I'm fairly sure you have CCS, too. That's not meant to sound rude. It's just that I've rarely met a woman who doesn't struggle with it."
This book is about how to spot this syndrome and its effects in your life; the view of life that causes it; how the gospel treats it; and how you can move beyond it to live a life of true, lasting contentment.
