The stage may look glamorous, but stewardship is what carries weight in heaven. In this episode, Mikel challenges you to focus less on attention and more on faithfulness.
It’s easy to chase the stage, the spotlight, and the applause—but what about stewardship? In this episode, Mikel unpacks the difference between seeking attention and living with true significance. Drawing from Luke 16:10 and John Maxwell’s insight on success versus significance, he reminds us that God’s priority isn’t building your platform—it’s building your faithfulness. You’ll be challenged to examine whether you’re fully stewarding what’s already in your hands, and to redefine success as steady, faithful obedience—whether or not it ever comes with a microphone.

The stage can be glamorous, but in God’s kingdom, it’s stewardship that carries weight. In this episode, Mikel challenges the assumption that impact always means attention. Using Luke 16:10 and John Maxwell’s distinction between success (adding value to yourself) and significance (adding value to others), he reminds us that God isn’t interested in building our platform—He’s interested in our faithfulness. Before asking for more, ask if you’re fully stewarding what’s already in your hands. Steadiness is not complacency—it’s trust, and it often lays the foundation for lasting growth.
