In this episode, I unpack what it really means to love God genuinely, deeply, and obediently. The world often tries to dismiss faithful obedience as legalism, but we challenge that idea head-on. Just like loyalty matters in marriage, parenting, and work, it matters even more in our relationship with God. Drawing from John 14:15 and 1 John 5:2-3, we look at how true love for God is never just a feeling or a statement it’s action. It's surrender. It’s joyful obedience.
I explore how the erosion of faith usually starts subtly, through culture, compromise, or even close companions, and I remind us that God’s boundaries are blessings, not burdens. This isn’t about fear; it’s about faithfulness. It’s not about rigid rule-following, but about honoring the One we love. We dig into what it means to walk the narrow path in a world that calls compromise clever. And we land on this truth: persistence in faith, not perfection, is what keeps us close to God.
If you’ve ever felt the tension between grace and obedience, between culture and conviction, this conversation is for you. Real love obeys and obedience, when born from love, becomes our greatest joy.
