What happens when you know something isn’t right — but you’re not sure you’re ready to let it go?

In this FaithFuel devotional, Bob Shaw speaks candidly about the struggle many believers face with persistent sin, secrecy, and reluctance to surrender. Using Proverbs 28:13 as the anchor, this episode explores the difference between honesty and repentance — and why secrecy keeps us stuck.

Bob shares personal experiences of withholding truth and how God lovingly exposed what was hidden, not to shame, but to bring freedom. Scripture reminds us that grace invites us toward God, not away from Him, and that freedom often begins with surrender rather than strength.

This episode offers hope for anyone who feels trapped, discouraged, or unsure how to take the next step toward freedom.

What does it actually mean to be “in the world, but not of it”?

In this FaithFuel devotional, Bob Shaw explores Jesus’ prayer in John 17:14–18 and what it means for believers to live faithfully in today’s culture. This episode addresses common misunderstandings — including whether Christians should withdraw, compromise, or disengage entirely.

Bob talks honestly about engaging culture, including politics and community life, while keeping Christ as our highest allegiance. Scripture shows that believers are called to influence the world as salt and light — without being shaped by it.

This episode offers practical clarity for Christians who want to live with conviction, wisdom, humility, and grace in a divided world.

Why do believers sometimes doubt their salvation when they struggle or grow slowly?

In this FaithFuel devotional, Bob Shaw explains the difference between salvation and sanctification — two concepts that are often confused and can lead to unnecessary guilt and fear. Anchored in Ephesians 2:8–9, this episode clarifies that salvation is a one-time act of God’s grace, while sanctification is the lifelong process of spiritual growth.

Bob shares his own experience of repeatedly asking Jesus into his heart out of fear that salvation didn’t “take,” and how Scripture helped him understand God’s patience in the process of growth.

This episode is especially helpful for believers who feel discouraged by ongoing struggles or slow progress and need reassurance that God is faithful to finish what He starts.
