What does it really cost to say yes to God?

More about the show

The Journey of Yes with Brenda Palmer is a Christian podcast about what happens when faith moves beyond what we believe and starts shaping how we actually live.

Each episode features honest conversations about radical obedience: the call that didn’t make sense, the step that required sacrifice, the season nobody applauded, and what was discovered on the other side of saying yes.

Brenda Palmer, author of The Journey of Yes: The Everyday Adventure of Radical Obedience, minister, and faith-based creator, sits down with leaders, creatives, couples, entrepreneurs, and everyday believers to unpack the real stories behind their obedience to God.

Together, we’re talking faith, calling, purpose, relationships, entrepreneurship, ministry, spiritual growth, and what it looks like to follow Jesus when obedience actually costs you something. Because saying yes to God isn’t always easy, but it’s always an invitation to know Him more.
