What would happen if you stopped negotiating with God every morning and started the day with one honest prayer: “Lord, my answer is yes”? That question can feel thrilling or terrifying, and that reaction tells us a lot about the stories we carry about God’s character.

We talk through what a “yes” posture actually means in Christian discipleship and spiritual formation. It is not people-pleasing or saying yes to every good idea. It is a Spirit-led way of life where we learn to trust God’s goodness and join Him in what He’s already doing. Scott connects the theme to the biblical picture of God using Israel to reveal His glory to the nations, then points to Jesus’ own pattern: doing what He sees the Father doing. We keep coming back to a practical question Dallas Willard often raised: if Jesus were me, who would He be in this moment?

Along the way, we share stories that make the kingdom of God feel concrete: Amy opening her home in a long-term “yes” that becomes family for a survivor rebuilding her life, a group of believers choosing service over complaint in a short-staffed restaurant that sparks an Iranian family’s conversion, and a simple act of help in a dressing room that leaves someone overflowing with joy. We also name what gets in the way, including anxiety, shame, and fearful narratives about God, and how conviction can lead to repentance and deeper trust.

If you’re hungry for a more abundant life that looks like Jesus in everyday places, press play. Subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find these conversations.
