EVERYDAY DISCIPLES S1:E7 Following the way of Jesus in everything, everywhere, every day. "And Jesus said to them, 'Follow me, and I will make you become fishers of men.'” - Mark 1:17 Welcome back to the Everyday Disciples podcast, where we discuss what it means to follow the way of Jesus in everything, everywhere, every day. This month, we are talking about what it means to selflessly serve.  SHOW NOTES  SERVICE BEGINS WITH HUMILITY: Philippians 2:3-4 reminds us, “but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. 4 Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.” In humility, with lowliness of mind, elevate the significance of those around. It was C.S. Lewis who said, “True humility is not thinking less of yourself, it's thinking of yourself less.” So give people weight and meaning, do not ignore them. Look to the interests of those around you. If you wanted to begin to see an improvement in your relationships, whether it be friendships, marriage, parenting, or with your parents. Begin to give those in your life weight, and don't always make it about you.  WHAT IS OUR EXAMPLE OF SERVICE: Dietrich Bonhoeffer once said, “When Jesus calls a man, he bids him come and die.” To follow Jesus is not to seek your own greatness. It is to die to yourself that you may truly live in Him. The example of our Lord is to serve and give our lives away. On the night that Jesus was betrayed, when He gathered his disciples, the task that was reserved for the last and the least, He took upon Himself and washed their feet. When there was an uproar over this, Jesus explained His actions, and in explaining his actions, he made it clear that we are to follow in His way of serving.  PRACTICE FOR THE MONTH: Serve. Ask God to help you die to yourself daily so that you may serve those around you and do something for someone with no expectation of return. Everyday Disciples is a production of Crossroads Church located in Grass Valley, California.

EVERYDAY DISCIPLES S1:E6Following the way of Jesus in everything, everywhere, every day."And Jesus said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you become fishers of men.” - Mark 1:17Welcome back to the Everyday Disciples podcast, where we discuss what it means to follow the way of Jesus in everything, everywhere, every day. This month, we are talking with Lynsey Kornoelje and Grayson Kessenich about what it means to worship: everywhere in everything. SHOW NOTESWHAT IS WORSHIP?Our English word for worship is derived from the word “worthship,” literally meaning to ascribe worth to something. When we think of it this way, we realize that we all worship something. There are things that we give our time, talent, and treasure to all the time. WHAT IS BIBLICAL WORSHIP?We see early on in Scripture that God makes a covenant with His people, making it clear that we are to have no one we put before Him. And so we ascribe worth, love, awe, wonder, and fear to God and God alone. (Exodus 20)Worship encompasses a full-bodied experience—praise, sacrifice, bowing, shouting, singing, and more. James K.A. Smith, author of You Are What You Love, states, “Worship that restores us is worship that restories us”.  Richard Foster encapsulates worship as the “Human response to the divine initiative.” Donald Whitney says, “Worship is focusing on and responding to God.”  My attempt to define worship is “a response of awe and love to the revelation of God.” Worship is designed to be biblically formed, God centered, and Gospel shaped. PRACTICES FOR THE MONTHBEGIN WHERE YOU AREAs you go about your day, begin with worship. Pause and thank God for the breath in your lungs. Think through your previous day and call out the moments where you saw God's goodness.  Practice praising God.TRY A NEW PRAISE PRACTICEListen to only worship music, keep a praise log of three things a day you can praise God for, try a different posture of praise, and read classic Hymns. WRITE A PSALM OF PRAISEWrite a psalm, a poem, or a  testimony of praise.Everyday Disciples is a production of Crossroads Church located in Grass Valley, California.

This is the most important message I've ever shared.Brian Tome: https://www.briantome.com/For generations, young men have grown up without a father, without initiation, and without the confidence they need to thrive. I've seen it firsthand—men who look like adults but feel like boys inside. This episode isn't just a podcast—it's a movement to bring back something society lost: the rite of passage into manhood.At BraveCo, we believe it's not too late. Last year, we introduced a 3.1-mile Tough Mudder Rite of Passage to our conference. What we thought would be just a powerful experience became the most transformational moment of the entire year—for sons and for fathers. I saw grown men cry. I saw boys stand tall for the first time. This year, we're believing for 300 young men to be changed forever. This is a calling, not just a challenge.In this episode, I talk with Brian Tome—founder of Crossroads Church and author of The Five Marks of a Man. We dive deep into identity, calling, spiritual maturity, and why the American church is failing to reach men. We don't hold back. We talk about church, culture, manhood, porn, shame, and what it means to lead a life of honor. If you're tired of surface-level conversations and ready to go deep—this is your episode.ABOUT BRAVECOWe live in a time where men are hunting for the truth and looking for the codebook to manhood. At BraveCo, we are on a mission to heal the narrative of masculinity across a generation; fighting the good fight together because every man should feel confident and capable of facing his pain, loving deeply, and leading a life that impacts the world around him.

Send us a textIn the final message of our Rhythms series, we turn to a spiritual practice that radically reshapes our hearts and habits: generosity. Based on 2 Corinthians 9:6–15, Pastor Jono unpacks how the full life Jesus invites us into isn't found in what we keep, but in what we give. In this message, we'll explore:   *  The Myth of More — why culture says more = happiness, but Jesus says giving = joy.   *  The Power of Giving — how generosity rewires our hearts and breaks greed's grip.   *. What it means to live open-handed — and how to cultivate generosity in daily life.This isn't about guilt — it's about freedom. Learn how simplicity and generosity form a rhythm that can reshape your soul and reflect the heart of God.

Christianity. Buddhism. Islam. Hinduism. They all seem to say the same thing, right? Be nice, don't kill, don't steal your neighbor's Wi-Fi, you know the drill. But what if these aren't just different paths up the same mountain? What if one of them flips the mountain upside down? In this message, Brian Tome unpacks why Christianity isn't just another rulebook to reach God—it's a radical invitation into relationship. One filled with grace, transformation, and the presence of the living God. And once you understand the difference, there's no chance you stay the same.  Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.

If you've been burned (or bored) by the Church, you're not alone. The Church has certainly been responsible for some not-so-great stuff over the years. Sounds hard to believe, but there was a time when the Church was the world's most powerful force for good. Hospitals, public education, and humanitarian aid—all born from the church.  The church isn't just a building or an organization, it's God's Plan A to bless His people. Even Jesus said it would “do greater things” than even He did while on earth. Whoa. So how do we practically live that out? Brian Tome points us to the power we can have when start to move.  Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Maybe you've seen those priceless paintings in a museum—then spotted the same image in the gift shop on a fridge magnet for $12. It might make you wonder: what's legit, and what's just a knockoff? People ask the same thing about Jesus. Was He just a good teacher? Did He even exist? Is He a divine masterpiece—or a cleverly crafted forgery? Join Kyle Ranson as we dive into the evidence, ancient manuscripts, and real-life stories that challenge what you might think you know.  Recorded live at Crossroads Church in Cincinnati, Ohio.
