Self Sacrifice, Part 4: The Dangers of People Pleasing

In this episode of the City Rev Life Podcast, “Self Sacrifice, Part 4: The Dangers of People Pleasing,” Pastors Robey Barnes and Josh Slautterback dive into the dangers of people-pleasing when striving to live a life of self-sacrifice like Christ. They discuss how the desire to please others can conflict with the biblical call to put God’s will first and lead to burnout, misplaced priorities, and a distorted view of self-sacrifice. Together, they explore how to set healthy boundaries and maintain a Christ-centered focus while serving others, avoiding the trap of seeking approval from people over God.
