Podcasts about disciples

One of the most stretching and mysterious questions you'll ever face as a disciple-maker is the tension between God's sovereignty and human responsibility. How does divine initiative fit with human effort? Who moves first, and how do we cooperate without falling into pride on one side or passivity on the other? Ultimately, the problem defies simple solutions. The tension between God's control and our choices is not a puzzle to be solved, but a mystery to be worshiped. Yet, this mystery does not excuse inactivity. Just because we can't fully explain God's ways doesn't mean we stop engaging in His work. One of our supporting members once asked an excellent question that frames this entire chapter.

Should Christians want America to be a Christian nation? For many believers, even asking the question feels uncomfortable.In this episode, we wrestle with why Christians who genuinely believe Christianity is true and good have become hesitant about its influence beyond our churches and personal lives. Have we accepted a privatized version of faith? Have we learned to compartmentalize Christianity? Have we become so accustomed to seeing Christianity through the eyes of its critics that we now apologize for wanting Christian values to influence society?There is a difference between coercing someone to believe and seeking to influence the world with what we believe is true and good. If Christianity really is good for humanity, why wouldn't we want more of its influence in the world?

He was borrowing their words, tone, and emotional responses and applying those scripts to real-life situations. That realization eventually led us to make significant changes to what he was consuming.But something surprising happened: Graham didn't stop scripting when we changed his media. His scripts changed.In this episode, we're talking about why Christian parents raising autistic disciples need to pay attention not only to how much screen time our kids have, but to what is filling that time. We'll talk about scripting and echolalia, how media can provide language for emotions, what happened when we changed Graham's content, and why his tendency to retain and repeat language has actually become an incredible avenue for discipleship.You'll also walk away with a practical way to evaluate your child's media this week:Listen → Trace → Evaluate → Replace → ObserveListen for repeated phrases or emotional responses. Trace where they may have learned them. Evaluate the content—not simply for whether it's “appropriate,” but for what it teaches about anger, fear, conflict, authority, and relationships. Replace unhelpful inputs with better ones rather than simply removing screens. Then observe what begins showing up in everyday life.Because Romans 12:2's call to be “transformed by the renewing of your mind” applies to our families too. What repeatedly occupies our attention matters.The goal isn't to eliminate an autistic way of learning. If our kids are going to script, we have an opportunity to give them truth worth scripting.Scripture referenced: Romans 12:2; Proverbs 4:23; Luke 6:45; Philippians 4:8; Deuteronomy 6:6–7; Psalm 1One question to take with you: If my child is going to carry scripts into the world, what scripts am I helping put there?

Then Jesus said to His disciples, If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me. – Matthew 16:24

The Pathway of a Disciple: Give (Pastor Nick Stephanovic) 8/30/26 Bridge City Church

Our Ten Commandments Series has now brought us to the Ninth Commandment, regarding not bearing false witness against our neighbor. To properly dig into the meaning of this command, we need to remember its context. After the first several Commandments taught us about our spiritual connection with God, the next several focused us on our human connections with one another. While this Ninth Commandment doesn’t seem as dramatic as don't murder, don't commit adultery and don't steal, it does raise our thinking and instruction to a new level. That level is not only about our thoughts and actions toward one another; it applies that behavior in a clear legal sense. So, what did this mean for Israel, and more importantly, what does it mean for us as disciples of Christ? What does it mean to bear false witness? This episode explores the Ninth Commandment's warning against false testimony and reveals how dishonesty, exaggeration and slander undermine justice and community trust. Through Old and New Testament examples—including Israel's legal standards, Jesus' trial and Stephen's martyrdom—we learn why truth‑centered speech is essential for disciples of Christ today. God values truth Israel's law required multiple witnesses, forbade mob influence and in some cases, punished malicious accusers with the same penalty they intended for the innocent. These safeguards protected justice and emphasized how seriously God views truthfulness. In the New Testament, Jesus identified false witness as a sin that springs from the heart. His own trial on the night before his crucifixion shows how lies and manipulation can be weaponized against righteousness. Stephen's death further exposes the tragic progression of threatened leaders who recruit false witnesses, stir up crowds and abandon integrity altogether. As we look inward, we are reminded that false witness can occur privately—through exaggeration, emotional reactions or even condemning ourselves after God has forgiven us. As disciples of Christ, we are called to speak only what builds integrity, honors God and protects the dignity of others. Key Takeaways What does it mean to bear false witness? False witness is intentional distortion meant to harm or mislead. Israel's law demanded strict witness standards to preserve justice. Jesus and Stephen reveal how lies escalate under fear, pride and mob pressure. Disciples must resist slander, exaggeration, rumor and emotionally driven accusations. Truthful, measured speech reflects Christ and strengthens community trust.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, Pastor Dom teaches on stewardship. Proverbs 10:2222 The blessing of the LORD brings wealth, without painful toil for it.Proverbs 11:2525The generous soul will be made rich, and he who waters will also be watered himself.2 Corinthians 9:88 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, have an abundance for every good work.3 John 1:22 Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospersLuke 6:3838 Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.”Luke 16:1-131 He also said to His disciples: “There was a certain rich man who had a steward, and an accusation was brought to him that this man was wasting his goods. 2 So he called him and said to him, ‘What is this I hear about you? Give an account of your stewardship, for you can no longer be steward.' 3 “Then the steward said within himself, ‘What shall I do? For my master is taking the stewardship away from me. I cannot dig; I am ashamed to beg. 4 I have resolved what to do, that when I am put out of the stewardship, they may receive me into their houses.' 5 “So he called every one of his master's debtors to him, and said to the first, ‘How much do you owe my master?' 6 And he said, ‘A hundred measures of oil.' So he said to him, ‘Take your bill, and sit down quickly and write fifty.' 7 Then he said to another, ‘And how much do you owe?' So he said, ‘A hundred measures of wheat.' And he said to him, ‘Take your bill, and write eighty.' 8 So the master commended the unjust steward because he had dealt shrewdly. For the sons of this world are more shrewd in their generation than the sons of light. 9 “And I say to you, make friends for yourselves by unrighteous mammon, (wealth)  that when you fail, they may receive you into an everlasting home. 10 He who is faithful in what is least is faithful also in much; and he who is unjust in what is least is unjust also in much. 11 Therefore if you have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust the true riches? 12 And if you have not been faithful in what is another man's, who will give you what is your own? 13 “No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.”Romans 14:1212 So then each of us shall give account of himself to God.2 Corinthians 5:1010 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.Jeremiah 17:99 “The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?Matthew 15:1919 For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies.Proverbs 3:5-75 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. 7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and depart from evil.James 1:55 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.Haggai 2:88 ‘The silver is Mine, and the gold is Mine,' says the Lord of hosts.Luke 22:1919 …do this in remembrance of Me.”1 Corinthians 11:2626 For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death till He comes.Matthew 26:2828 for this is my blood, which confirms the covenant between God and his people. It is poured out as a sacrifice to forgive the sins of many.Ephesians 2:8-98 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.

What does it truly mean to make an impact? A women's basketball coach at Texas A&M offered a simple but powerful distinction: success is what happens to you, while impact is what happens because of you. Numbers 8, set against the backdrop of the Israelites preparing to journey through the wilderness, gives us four clear attributes of a person who makes a lasting difference. God was literally at the center of the Israelite camp, and that arrangement was intentional. When He is at the center of our lives, everything else finds its proper place.The four attributes are ears that hear the Lord, hands that build a team, a heart that loves the presence of God, and a soul that shines while dented. Hearing God means opening His Word with genuine expectancy, not just asking Him to bless our existing plans but actually listening for His. Building a team means delegating real trust and responsibility to others, whether in ministry, marriage, or family life. Loving His presence means creating space to actually be with God, not just attending church or reading a verse occasionally, but slowing down enough to connect deeply. And shining while dented means allowing the painful, hammered seasons of life to shape us into purposeful instruments rather than broken ones.Jesus modeled all four of these attributes perfectly. He listened constantly to His Father, built a team of disciples, withdrew regularly to pray, and shined most brilliantly while suffering on the cross. Because of it, He became the most impactful person who ever walked the earth. Impact is not reserved for pastors or missionaries or people with large platforms. It belongs to anyone willing to live with ears open, hands extended, a heart pursuing His presence, and a soul that keeps shining even when life has left its marks.

Matthew 6 : 5-8

Jesus didn't simply call us to believe in Him; He called us to follow Him. A disciple is someone who learns the habits, rhythms, attitudes, and way of life of their Rabbi. The goal isn't just to know about Jesus, but to become more like Him. Join us Sunday as we continue our series Abide in Me, discover what is shaping our spiritual life, and what it would look like if our life was so formed by Jesus that we could be mistaken for Him.

Welcome to week one of our new series, Following Jesus Together. The question isn't whether you're being discipled, but who or what is actually shaping your life.

Home Church QuestionsRead Mark 1:14-28“The Kingdom of God is at hand.” (1:15)1. The “Kingdom of God” was at hand because the King was present. What does this truth mean for you today and tomorrow?“Immediately they left their nets and followed Him.” (1:17)2. When did you get serious about your walk with Christ? Tell the story of when you decided to accept Jesus as your Savior. Was there a different time when you decided to follow Him as His disciple?“…astonished at His teaching”; “…amazed…the demons obeyed.” (1:22,27)3. Do you find yourself more captivated and intrigued by the powerful teaching of Jesus or the powerful works of Jesus?4. What is the difference between “being amazed” and actually “following”? “Immediately the news about Him spread everywhere.” (1:28)5. Why did the news spread? What lesson can we learn from this? What steps can I take to make it real?“Be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.” (James 1:22)6. What did you learn about God in this passage? How does this affect you?7. How are you encouraged or challenged by this passage?8. How will you respond to God this week? Missions FocusUPG FOCUS: The Kalu in BangladeshThe Kalu are a Muslim people group in Bangladesh with a long history in farming and traditional oil production. They follow Sunni Islam, and many rely on folk spiritual practices for guidance and protection. Although Scripture and gospel resources are available in their language, there are no known believers there. Pray that the Holy Spirit would draw the Kalu to Jesus, raise up disciple-makers from among them, and use both practical care and the gospel to reveal Christ's love.

 In a world filled with competing voices, everyone is asking for our agreement. But what does it really mean to say “Amen”?In this episode, we look at Deuteronomy 27 and discover that “Amen” is more than a church word or a response to something we like. It represents alignment, agreement, and a willingness to live according to what has been spoken. From the voices shaping our culture to the desires and perspectives shaping our own lives, the real question is: Who gets our agreement?Discipleship means settling that question. Jesus doesn't simply ask us to believe in him. He calls us to align our lives with his way, his truth, and his Word. In every part and every place, our response must be: Amen.

Together they challenge the idea that multiplying churches are only for "superstar" leaders and argue that healthy multiplication begins with intentionally making disciples and developing leaders.Whether you lead a church of 30 or 3,000, this conversation offers practical encouragement for pastors who want to build a culture where disciple making becomes normal, and church planting becomes a natural outcome.

Countless millions have testified to the spiritual depth and importance of the Bible, and it is the most-read and most-translated book in human history. Yet in the recent west, reading the Bible has fallen out of favor (not to mention reading in general). Do you have a Bible or two on your shelf that are just collecting dust? Are you intimidated by this influential and important, but not easy-to-read ancient collection of Jewish and Christian writings? The main book discussed in this episode is the stepladder you need to reach the Bible’s rich and life-giving contents: Sean Finnegan’s Read the Bible for Yourself. It’s part of a new, three-book series of books published by Living Hope International Ministries (LHIM) for disciples, those who have been convinced that following Jesus is the only way to live, and who want to follow his footsteps in loving God and our fellow humans. The authors are three well-known unitarian Christian pastors whom I respect and unreservedly recommend (see the links below). In this new interview, Pastor Finnegan and I discuss this some of the very different genres of the biblical books, his new book, and the other two books in this series.

"We live in an age where attention has become our most endangered resource. Every sound, every scroll, every urgency competes for it. But what if the real threat to our spiritual lives isn't disbelief, but distraction? What if the Spirit has not grown silent, but we have grown unable to hear?" Jeremy Sims asks these questions in The Way of the Spirit. He goes on to say: "I've come to see that much of the Christian life is not about gaining more faith but giving better attention. Attention is the soil where faith grows. It's how love learns to see. When we attend to what is small, we begin to glimpse what is holy." In this episode of the Influence Podcast, I talk to Sims about pay attention to what the Holy Spirit is doing in all the waypoints of a Christian's life. I'm George P.
