In this seventh episode, host Charlotte Emma delves into an in-depth discussion about the concept of ambition from a Christian perspective. She explores the 'anitmonies' around ambition and humility and suggests some ways we can 'live in tension'. Charlotte speaks about her shift from the motto 'live to love others' to 'live to glorify God'. Using a biblical parable, she further asserts that God encourages us to work towards our goals and ambitions, and how this can glorify Him.
