Today, on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme, “Discipleship.” Jim Daly joined us to talk about the spiritual landscape facing families today and how parents can live an authentic faith that draws their children toward Christ rather than pushing them away. Jim is the President and Chief Executive Officer of Focus on the Family and the host of the podcast. We then had Dr. Ronald Sauer join us to explain why the Holy Spirit is essential to the Christian life, guiding believers into truth, empowering daily obedience, and giving parents hope as they pray for their children. Dr. Sauer is the host of the podcast “Quiet Time” and has served as a Professor of Bible and Greek at Moody Bible Institute for 35 years. We also had Dr. Crawford Loritts join us to explain why discipleship cannot happen apart from the Holy Spirit, who glorifies Christ, illuminates God’s Word, and transforms believers from the inside out. Dr. Loritts is the President and Founder of Beyond Our Generation, which is committed to helping the next generation of Christian leaders.

Dr. Crawford Loritts says that becoming a disciple of Jesus requires a decisive commitment. You have to decide. Jesus does not call for incrementalism. He does not call you to wander your way into this thing. He does not call for you to process your way into this. To become a disciple means in some many words, you have no control over your life. It’s a life-long journey. You make the decision decisively, but it is a life-long journey.

Dr. Crawford Loritts joins the Perrys for a conversation about leadership and the qualities that make someone worth following. True leadership is stewardship and sacrifice. Someone's ability to lead is in direct proportion to their ability to serve. A good leader has conviction, not just knowledge, with wisdom that's the product of experience, not simply exposure to information. And Dr. Loritts talks about anointing being on the person, not their platform or performance, and how gifts are most developed when you focus on character and godliness.
