Episode 130: The Lie: If I Say No, I'm Selfish

from Leadership Becomes Her: Simple, Strategic Solutions for Christian Women Who Lead · host Becky Burroughs

Hey, Friend! Have you ever said "yes" when everything inside of you wanted to say "no"? Maybe you volunteered for one more ministry, answered one more late-night text, or took on one more responsibility because saying no felt...wrong. After all, aren't Christians supposed to serve? Aren't leaders supposed to sacrifice? In this episode, we're exposing one of the most common—and most exhausting—lies Christian leaders believe: If I say no, I'm selfish. The truth is, Jesus never said yes to everyone. He didn't meet every need, accept every invitation, or heal every person who came looking for Him. Instead, He modeled something even more important: complete obedience to the Father. If you've ever struggled with guilt when setting boundaries, felt responsible for everyone's happiness, or wondered how to love people without losing yourself, this conversation is for you. I pray this blesses you, Becky
