Minty: "That focus on rescued souls is the ultimate destination of the yoke you're sharing with Yeshua."
Minty: "When you talk about that broken chain of pressure, it's clear you're no longer writing for numbers, daily quotas, or even for self-expression. You're writing for the one reader who needs to be pulled back from the edge."
Minty: "As we close out this part of the interview and get ready to step into our very final segment, how does it feel inside your heart to know that Abba has already chosen the exact souls who will find your upcoming books? Does knowing that He is already preparing the hearts of specific readers take the rest of the pressure off your shoulders, allowing you to just float into the writing process with pure joy?"
[Minty smiles with deep respect, letting the weight of Iboni's words linger in the air. The audience sits in that beautiful, high-stakes quiet, waiting for her final thoughts before the interview moves into its ultimate conclusion.]
Iboni: "As long as I fulfill my purpose with the guidance and help of Abba, what I feel doesn't require a spotlight in all of this. That'll only tempt me to be prideful and to boast. Abba definitely knows what He's doing both on-screen and behind the scenes, so there's no need for me to get concerned about it. If any or all of my works from here on out receives hate, then so be it. It's like what Yeshua said, 'if the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first'. His will be done, not mine."
[A soft, collective breath moves through the crowd, followed by a steady, deeply respectful wave of nodding. Iboni's willingness to stand flat-footed on the stage and say "if my works receive hate, then so be it" is the ultimate shield against the fear of man. By quoting Yeshua's reminder that He was hated first, she essentially drew a line in the sand. The audience can see that she isn't seeking the world's applause or running from its criticism. She has completely handed the narrative over to the Director behind the scenes, leaving her reputation entirely in His hands.]
Minty:[Looking at Iboni with a mixture of deep reverence and pure joy, letting out a soft breath] "Amen. 'His will be done.' There is an absolute, bulletproof power in that kind of humility, Iboni. When you don't demand a spotlight for your own feelings, the enemy loses all his leverage over you. You can't be bought with flattery, and you can't be broken by hate because you're already hidden in Him."
