BEYOND HEAD KNOWLEDGE

1 min readMay 25, 2025

Why Obedience matters.

As I reflected on the conversations I’ve heard among young people about the Bible, I couldn’t help but notice a disturbing trend. Many know the difference between right and wrong, good and bad, yet fail to live by those principles. Instead, they often fall prey to teachings that contradict God’s word.

The question is: Why? Is it merely a matter of intellectual assent, or is there more to it? I believe the answer lies in obedience — the willingness to apply what we know to be true. Knowledge without application is useless. It’s the doing, not just the knowing, that sets us apart.

As we navigate this week, let’s strive to do more than just gain knowledge. Let’s seek to implement it, to act on it, and to live it out. It’s only when we put our faith into practice that we can truly be known as those who do right — and see tangible results.

Let’s challenge ourselves to move beyond mere intellectual assent and into obedience. Let’s seek to live out our faith in tangible ways, and may our actions reflect the transformative power of God’s word.

Happy New Week!
