When Following Jesus Costs You Something
What happens when following Jesus means standing apart from everyone else? It's easy to say we have strong convictions when nothing is challenging them. But what happens when those convictions threaten our reputation, relationships, security, or acceptance? When does cooperation become compromise? And how can Christians stand firm in their faith without becoming unnecessarily confrontational? In this episode of Walking with Conviction in an Anxious Age, Pastor Chris Miller explores Daniel 3 and the remarkable courage of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Surrounded by an entire empire demanding their obedience, three young men refused to bow before a golden image. But their courage wasn't found in rebellion, stubbornness, or confidence that everything would work out. It was settled in something far deeper. They had already settled who God was. And their answer to the king revealed a kind of faith that doesn't depend on favourable circumstances: "But even if He does not..." Those five words challenge the way many Christians understand faith, obedience, and trust in God. In this episode, we explore: • Why cultural pressure is often more subtle than outright persecution• The difference between cooperation and compromise• Why being different isn't the same thing as being difficult• How to respect other cultures and religions without compromising Christian convictions• What Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego teach us about courage• Why genuine faith doesn't require God to deliver the outcome we want• How to develop convictions that hold when life becomes difficult Pastor Chris also explores a practical question: Is it appropriate for a Christian to visit a Buddhist temple? The answer leads to a much bigger conversation about personal responsibility, religious practices, cultural respect, and knowing where our ultimate allegiance belongs. Following Jesus doesn't mean opposing everyone who believes differently. It means knowing who God is, understanding what belongs to Him alone, and having the courage to act on those convictions when they are tested. Because pressure doesn't create our convictions. Pressure reveals what has been forming us all along. Whether you're facing pressure at work, navigating difficult relationships, or trying to remain faithful in a culture that doesn't share your beliefs, this conversation will help you think more clearly about what it means to stand firm without becoming combative. Sometimes faithfulness means cooperating. Sometimes it means respectfully refusing. And sometimes it means saying, "Even if He does not." 🎧 FOLLOW WALKING WITH CONVICTION If you value thoughtful, biblically grounded conversations about faith, life, courage, and spiritual formation, follow Walking with Conviction in an Anxious Age.

Why Do I Still Fell Guilty If God Has Forgiven Me?
You’ve confessed your sin and asked God for forgiveness. So why does the memory still return and why do you keep punishing yourself? In John 21, Jesus shares breakfast with Peter, the disciple who denied Him. Beside a charcoal fire, Peter discovers that failure does not have to be the end of his story. Jesus restores him and gives him responsibility: “Feed My sheep.” In this episode of Walking with Conviction in an Anxious Age, Pastor Chris Miller explores guilt, shame, repentance, and the difference between conviction and condemnation. Conviction calls us toward Jesus. Condemnation tells us to hide. And recurring feelings of guilt do not overturn God’s promise of forgiveness. What are you carrying? Is there sin to confess, something to make right, or a burden that was never yours to bear? How do you receive forgiveness when your feelings are still catching up? Correction is not rejection. Because of Christ’s finished work, you can take the next step toward Him. Scripture: John 21:1–19; Romans 8:1; 1 John 1:9.

Wondering What Will Happen Next? - Remember What God Has Done
What if one reason life feels heavier than it needs to is that we’re always looking ahead to what still needs to change? We pray for the next answer, work toward the next goal, and wonder what God will do next. And sometimes, in all that looking forward, we forget to stop and notice what He's already done. In this episode of Walking with Conviction in an Anxious Age, Pastor Chris Miller turns to Psalm 126 and a simple but easily forgotten practice: remembering and celebrating the faithfulness of God. The people in this Psalm had known hardship. Their story wasn’t completely finished, and there was still more restoration to come. Yet they could stop, look around, and say: “The LORD has done great things for us, and we are glad.” That kind of joy doesn’t require pretending that everything is okay. It doesn’t ignore suffering, unanswered questions, or waiting for God to do something. It simply refuses to let an unfinished story keep us from recognising the goodness of God that is already visible. In this episode: • Why remembering God’s faithfulness gives us hope for what is still unresolved• How joy can survive hardship• Why celebration is an important part of spiritual formation• How constant busyness can make us overlook God’s goodness• Why Scripture repeatedly teaches God’s people to stop and remember• How gratitude gives us strength to keep moving forward Sometimes faithfulness means pressing on. But sometimes faithfulness means stopping long enough to enjoy what God has already done. This week, think of one way God has been faithful to you—even in an unfinished story. Tell someone about it, give thanks, and take a moment to enjoy His goodness. If this episode encouraged you, follow Walking with Conviction in an Anxious Age so you don’t miss the next conversation, and share this episode with someone who could use a reminder of God’s faithfulness today. ☕ Support Walking with Conviction If Walking with Conviction has encouraged your faith and you would like to help support the ministry, you can buy me a coffee here: https://buymeacoffee.com/walking_with_conviction Your support helps cover the cost of producing the podcast and enables these conversations to reach more people around the world.
