DDD: All In Process: Choosing People Over Preferences

from The Washington Defender Podcast · host Brian Noble

Give me 7+ Minutes on your drive into work today  What if the biggest threat to God’s work in someone’s life isn’t their politics, but your preferences? Scripture says, “Do not tear down the work of God for the sake of food,” and that warning hits everything from environmental debates to homelessness and addiction. In this devotional, we ask: are you helping God’s work in others, or tearing it down over secondary issues? Stay with me as we learn how to stand firm on absolutes while loving people who are still in process—just like us.  This devotional from Pastor Brian Noble explores the difference between God’s clear absolutes and our personal preferences, using Romans 14:20 to warn against tearing down God’s work in another person over secondary issues. Pastor Brian Noble applies this to real-world tensions—politics, environmental stewardship, homelessness, and addiction—showing how many policy questions fall into “principles of conscience” where believers must walk in humility. He emphasizes that salvation in Christ is the non‑negotiable foundation, while sanctification is a lifelong process God is perfecting in each of us. The episode ends with prayer for political leaders, pastors, and all believers in Washington State to become salt and light in the public square while loving people more than their own preferences.  Donate Today - https://fpiw.bndlr.co/  TAKE ACTION Don’t Just talk about it - DOWNLOAD The “WASHINGTON DEFENDER APP” today https://fpiw.org/washington-defender-app/
