Dislikeable Fear
from Trey Knowles - Truth & Knowledge
Truth & Knowledge: Episode 38 – “Dislikeable Fear” In this episode, Trey Knowles unpacks dislikeable fear—the fear of not being liked. He explains how living for other people's approval leads to compromise, broken morals, and a false sense of worth. The truth is, not everyone will like you, and seeking universal approval is both impossible and destructive. Trey challenges listeners to consider: Whose approval matters most—man's or God's? When we base our value on human recognition, we live by others' standards instead of God's truth. But when we walk in holiness, our worth is already secured in Christ. As Galatians reminds us, “If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.” Dislikeable fear should not be the fear of the world's rejection—but the fear of losing God's approval. True freedom comes when we recognize that only God, our Creator, defines our worth.
