Episode 225: The Devil Doesn’t Need Your Soul—Just Your Schedule

Today, we’re talking stewardship—the gritty, fierce, spiritual discipline that separates the boys from the men in the boardroom and at home. Paul M. Neuberger goes straight for the jugular: Satan’s greatest win isn’t making you evil…it’s keeping you distracted. The world screams for your hours and your heart, but Christ demands your loyalty—minute by minute, day by day.

You want comfort? The culture will sell it. You want purpose? That’s God’s business. In a world drunk on scrolling, binge-watching, and busyness, you’re called to invest your time like it belongs to God—because it does.

Today’s battle question: Does your calendar prove your allegiance to Christ… or to comfort?

Buckle up. Audit your time, surrender your schedule, and let this episode be your wake-up call. This one’s raw, real, and rooted in truth.
"Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil." —Ephesians 5:15-16

Episode Highlights

13:44 – Success is a terrible substitute for obedience. One of the greatest lies our culture tells us is that a full calendar equals a meaningful life. Guess what, bucko? It does not. A full calendar simply means you're busy. God has never called us to be busy. He's called us to be faithful. And there's a tremendous difference between the two.

24:57 – "Later is one of the most dangerous words in the Christian vocabulary. Later has postponed countless acts of obedience... The trouble is, convenience has a habit of always staying just over the horizon. Following Jesus has never been about finding the easiest path. It's about faithfully walking the path he places in front of us today.

49:49 – "I don't believe God created us simply to stay busy. I believe he created us to bear fruit... A tree can have thousands of leaves and produce no fruit. Likewise, a person can have thousands of appointments and accomplish very little of eternal significance. That's a sobering reality
