When Obedience Doesn't Look Like Success

Описание: Here is our newest episode! Phillip is talking with the man, the myth, the legend, pastor Chris Kopp of ChangePoint Alaska!
When obedience doesn’t lead to numbers, recognition, or influence, it can quietly shake everything you believe about success.
In this episode, we have an honest conversation about faithfulness in places that feel unseen and overlooked. From pastoring in rural Alaska (closer to the Arctic Circle than the nearest Walmart) to wrestling with comparison, authority, and expectations, we explore what it really means to obey God when the results don’t look impressive.

We talk about:
-The tension between obedience and visible “success”
-Why numbers and influence aren’t always signs of faithfulness
-Resisting comparison in a world of celebrity pastors and platforms
-Learning unity and submission under God’s authority
-Staying faithful when growth feels slow or nonexistent

This episode is for anyone who has ever wondered if they’re failing simply because their obedience hasn’t produced what the world calls success.
