Why Pleasing Everyone Isn’t Your Job

29 minutes

People love to offer their opinions—about your choices, your ministry, your lifestyle. But sometimes the best way to care for others (and yourself) is to stop caring so much about what certain people think.

This week on the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we’re talking about the voices that hold you back—and how to break free from people-pleasing so you can actually make disciples and live on mission. This one might be exactly what your soul needs.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

Why our desire for acceptance runs so deep

How people’s opinions can quietly keep us stuck

The 3 types of people it’s okay to stop listening to

Who’s opinion really matters (and who’s doesn’t)

From this episode:

“It’s been said that people would care a lot less about what others think about them if they knew how little others think about them. And it’s true: if you’re worried about how you come across to someone you’ve just met or had a conversation with, keep in mind that they’re probably doing the same thing.”

Each week the Big 3 will give you immediate action steps to get you started.
