Bobby Bosler — Beyond the Checklist

Many young people measure their Christianity by boxes checked and rules kept. In this episode, Bobby Bosler challenges that mindset with the words of Jesus: “But I say unto you.” Victory in the Christian life is not about religion or outward conformity, but about walking with the living Christ in daily dependence and surrender.

Topics Discussed

• What it really means to be “more than a conqueror” in Christ
• The danger of checklist Christianity and outward conformity
• How Jesus corrected shallow interpretations of God’s law
• The difference between religion and relationship
• Listening to the Spirit’s voice in daily life
• Yielding to Christ in practical moments (family, ministry, soul winning)

Key Takeaways

• Jesus didn’t save you to lose—He saved you to live as a conqueror through His power.
• A checklist mentality leads to dead religion; true Christianity flows from relationship with Christ.
• Obedience is not about outward compliance but inward surrender to Jesus.
• The Spirit of God actively corrects, leads, and guides believers—if we are listening.
• Dependence on Jesus enables victory in habits, prayer, soul winning, and God’s will.
