Your Holy ‘YES’
It’s okay for them to be wrong about you
We recently said yes to something that surprised even us.
In the coming months, we’ll be moving to South Africa to join a missions team. It’s a big step—full of unknowns, risk, and the kind of decisions that make people tilt their heads and ask, “Wait… why?” And while we’re excited, we also know this decision will raise questions.
That’s why we want to start here:
Not every yes looks like this. And that’s exactly how it’s supposed to be.
The longer we walk with Jesus, the more we realize that authentic Kingdom obedience is extremely personalized. Some are called to go. Others are called to stay. Some are called to give generously. Others are called to guard faithfully. Some uproot. Others build deep roots. Some pioneer. Others preserve.
All of it matters.
There’s no hierarchy of obedience. Just alignment with what Jesus is asking of you, personally, right now.
As we’ve shared this journey with others, we've received love, support, and also a few thoughtful concerns. People we respect and love have asked important questions. Not because they’re against what we’re doing—but sometimes because their yes looks different. Their assignment is planted somewhere else. And when one person’s obedience seems radically different from your own, it’s natural to feel protective, even confused.
We see it as love. And we’re deeply grateful for it.
But we also want to say this clearly:
Your yes is no less holy than ours.
Whether you’re running a business, raising children, building houses, writing code, pastoring a local church, supporting missionaries, or interceding for strangers around the world—you’re doing something powerful.
The call of Jesus is always personal.
And it’s always costly in some way.
The one who gives sacrificially to others’ missions…
The one who opens their home to pray and host…
The one who keeps showing up in their neighborhood…
The one who stays put while others go…
They’re all obeying the same King.
And the fruit of their faithfulness is just as beautiful.
This is exactly why we’re building Rally Point Network—a place for goers and senders alike. Those who remain steadfast. Those whose yes builds sanctuaries that strengthen the yes of others.
So whether you’re moving across the world or across the street, may you be encouraged:
You don’t need to compare your yes to anyone else’s.
You just need to give it with your whole heart.
It’s not about what you are invited to.
It’s about who sent the invitation.
