Heartfelt obedience to God and those in authority over us, is one of the powerful sanctifiers of a believer and joyful obedience is a powerful outcome of our love for Christ. (John 14:15). But it is scary; the connotation is negative, and many of us are scarred by it, or are so protective of our happiness, dreams, ideal world that obedience at the cost of any of these is an untenable prospect. Even though some broken people have ruined "obedience", this does not give us the right to reject the practice or virtue of obedience in our personal lives.

Where do we go from here though, how do we practice obedience? How do we train children in obedience while being attuned and tender parents? More importantly, how do we heal our hearts around obedience?

Episode 132 with Emelie Pepito is full of stories from the arc of obedience in the Pepito family, the comfort of God as we grow in obedience, and being the leader you want to have.
