    The Cost of Obedience: Losing Relationships as You Unveil Your Identity in God

    In this episode, Sherwanna Livingston explores the theme of obedience, discussing its costs, its connection to identity, and the importance of receiving through faith. She emphasizes that obedience is not about perfection or performance but about aligning with one's true identity as defined by God.

Ultimately, Sherwanna encourages listeners to embrace gratitude and release in order to receive the blessings they seek.   Keywords obedience, identity, faith, relationships, personal growth, spirituality, God, transformation, loss, gratitude Takeaways Obedience is a response to the voice of God.
