Are you always looking for the next big change, thinking it will bring you closer to God’s will? In this episode of So True, Pastor Philip De Courcy unpacks 1 Corinthians 7:17–24 to remind us that God often calls us to faithfulness right where we are. While following Christ transforms our hearts, it doesn’t necessarily mean changing our circumstances.
Drawing from the wisdom of the apostle Paul, desert monk Abba Anthony, and missionary martyr Jim Elliot, Pastor Philip challenges us to resist the temptation of unnecessary change. Instead, we are called to bloom where we are planted, finding contentment and purpose in our current season—unless God clearly leads us elsewhere.
