This week on Go & Do, Candis Shupe dives into the story of Noah and the Flood to explore what intentional obedience really looks like and why God never forces it.

In this episode, you’ll consider:
 🌧️ Why the people in Noah’s day “hearkened not”—again and again—and how that mirrors modern choices
🚜 A personal (and painful) lesson on delayed obedience, complete with a lawn mower and real consequences
📜 How God’s laws always come with blessings but also consequences, because He honors agency
❤️ Why obedience is not blind or forced, but a willing expression of love what some leaders call “affectionate obedience”
The pivot question Noah’s story asks each of us: Do I really love God and am I willing to show it His way?

God won’t force obedience. But He also won’t remove the consequences of ignoring His voice.S o what is He asking you to do right now? And will you choose to respond not eventually, not halfway but intentionally?
