About this listen

In this episode, we dive deep into the question: What does it really mean to be a good person? Society often defines goodness as kindness or morality, but the Bible gives us a richer, more challenging perspective.

We’ll explore why true goodness begins with God, why human goodness falls short, and how the Holy Spirit produces real goodness in us. We’ll talk about practical ways to love others, avoid false goodness, and build a lasting legacy of faith and honor.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why only God defines true goodness (Mark 10:18)
  • The difference between human “niceness” and biblical goodness
  • How the fruit of the Spirit reveals true character
  • Practical ways to love your neighbor as yourself
  • The danger of counterfeit goodness (Matthew 23:27–28)
  • Why being “good” is about faith, direction, and legacy, not perfection

Scriptures Mentioned:

  • Mark 10:18
  • Romans 3:23
  • Galatians 5:22–23
  • Matthew 22:37–39
  • Micah 6:8
  • Proverbs 13:22
  • Matthew 25:23

Takeaway Quote:

“Being a good person is not about perfection—it’s about walking in God’s direction.”
