Description

 


In this episode, I share something God showed me while I was teaching the boys at Beacon of Hope Africa. We were talking about obedience, but it turned into something bigger.


I explained how integrity is like the center of a wagon wheel. The other traits—like kindness, trust, forgiveness, and perseverance—are the spokes. The wheel can’t roll without strong spokes, and life doesn’t move forward without strong character.


We also studied the word Shema from the Bible. It means to listen and obey as one action—not just hearing something, but responding to it. I even tell a wild story I heard when I was a teenager about a woman who stood on her head in a coat closet... because God told her to. And it saved a life.



What You'll Hear Me Talk About



  • Why integrity is more than a good trait—it’s the center of everything

  • What obedience really means in Scripture

  • A powerful story about strange obedience that made an eternal difference

  • How we’re teaching strong character through everyday choices

  • How to say yes to God even when it doesn’t feel easy



Bible Verses in This Episode



  • Ephesians 6:1–3 — “Obey your parents… so it may go well with you.”

  • 1 Samuel 15:22 — “To obey is better than sacrifice.”

  • Joshua 1:9 — “Be strong and courageous… the Lord your God is with you.”

  • The Hebrew word Shema — to hear and obey



A Quote I Love

If this episode encouraged you, I’d love it if you shared it with a friend, left a review, or connected with me online.

Remember: God’s not asking for perfection. He’s asking for your yes.


Let’s keep walking that out—one obedient step at a time.


Go when God calls.
