About this episode

Pastor Luke Taylor discusses the importance of Christian integrity and following through on commitments to God and others.

In this message, “Yes! (ish)”, Pastor Luke Taylor explores what it means to live with true Christian integrity when our words and actions do not always line up. Looking at Matthew 21:28–31, the parable of the two sons, Pastor Luke challenges us to examine the gap between good intentions and real obedience. It is easy to say yes to God, to church, to ministry, or to others — but what happens when that yes becomes inconvenient, costly, or uncomfortable? This sermon also unpacks Jesus’ teaching in Matthew 5:33–37: “Let your yes be yes and your no be no.” Through Psalm 15, we are reminded that a person who walks closely with God is someone who keeps their word, even when it hurts. A powerful message on Christian integrity, obedience to God, keeping your promises, spiritual commitment, faithfulness, discipleship, and following through on your yes. If you have ever struggled with saying yes to God but not following through, this sermon will encourage and challenge you to become a person whose word is enough.
