BE6 Obedience that Requires Acceptance is NOT Obedience

In this bonus episode, I expand on a conversation I once had about a powerful truth: if obedience requires acceptance, then it’s not really obedience.Sometimes we step out in faith expecting open doors, recognition, or support — but God never promised that obedience would always be popular or widely accepted. In this episode, I reflect on that reality and share a personal revelation about the direction of this ministry and the I Am Matthew Podcast.This may never be a mainstream podcast. And that’s okay.The goal has never been popularity, influence, or numbers — the goal has always been faithfulness to Jesus Christ and His Word. Sometimes obedience means continuing forward even when the crowd isn’t there, trusting that God sees the work and that He is the one truly directing the path.This episode is an honest reflection on ministry, calling, and what it means to follow God even when the road feels lonely — knowing that hope is not found in acceptance from people, but in obedience to the One who called us.🌐 Website: https://www.iammatthewministries.org💙 Donate on Venmo: https://www.venmo.com/u/IAmMatthewMinistries📧 Email: [email protected]
