In the video "3 Steps to Boost Confidence and Self-Worth," Pastor Scott Thom discusses how to enhance self-worth and confidence through three key areas: character, competence, and the promises of Jesus. He emphasizes that true self-worth is grounded in one’s character and values, the development of skills and abilities, and ultimately, the unconditional love and validation found in Christ. He encourages viewers to avoid comparison with others and instead focus on personal growth and relationship with God.
