In this episode of The Submissive CEO, I reflect on a hard but important truth many of us face when we’re building, leading, and making big decisions:
Partial obedience is still disobedience.
It’s easy to think we’re following God because we’re doing most of what He said. But sometimes we obey the parts that are comfortable and quietly ignore the parts that require more trust.
Using the story of King Saul in 1 Samuel 15, Ludgy talks about how partial obedience can show up in our everyday decisions — especially for entrepreneurs and people who feel called to build something meaningful.
In this episode, we talk about:
• Why doing “most” of what God said can still lead you off course
• The danger of making decisions first and asking God later
• Why obedience doesn’t always look impressive or fast
• How productivity can sometimes replace intimacy with God
• Simple ways to slow down and realign with what God actually asked you to build
If you’re an entrepreneur — or someone who feels called to build something — this conversation will challenge you to pause and ask a powerful question:
Am I building what God asked for… or just what I’m capable of doing?
Stick around until the end for a short prayer for anyone navigating big decisions, responsibilities, and calling.
