Podcasts about disciples

Jesus calls his followers "disciples"—people who listen to him, talk with him, and look to him for guidance. And as disciples, we have an important job: to help reach others for him so they can get to know him, too.

I. Introduction Welcome to the Victory Church podcast and Sunday worship gathering. Victory's mission: reaching the lost, restoring the broken, reviving believers.​ Joy and gratitude for being in God's house where worship, prayer, the Word, and fellowship occur.​ Emphasis that God's grace enabled people to be present, overcoming hindrances.​ II. The Nature and Purpose of Prayer Prayer and the Word as central priorities at Victory Church.​ Biblical commands to pray: “men ought always to pray,” “pray without ceasing,” “watch and pray,” “continue earnestly in prayer.”​ Clarification: prayer is not a religious ritual but a relational conversation with a loving Father.​ Prayer as sharing cares, dreams, concerns with God; Scripture as God sharing His thoughts and heart with us.​ III. Reactive vs. Proactive Prayer A. Reactive Prayer Definition: responding to events, crises, and immediate needs after they happen.​ Typical reactive requests: jobs, finances, housing, healing, family and school pressures.​ Affirmation: these needs matter to God; believers should cast all cares on Him.​ Problem: if this is the only kind of praying, discipleship and prayer life are out of alignment with God's best.​ B. Proactive Prayer Definition: creating or shaping situations by praying God's will in advance, not only reacting.​ Example from the Lord's Prayer: “Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven” as a proactive request.​ Goal: move believers beyond crisis-only praying into kingdom-focused, forward-looking prayer.​ IV. Acts 4 as a Model of Prayer A. Context of Acts 4 Acts as early church history, showing the Spirit-empowered beginnings of the church.​ Peter and John preaching, healing a crippled man, and provoking opposition from religious leaders.​ Authorities command them not to speak or teach in the name of Jesus.​ Connection to today: pressure in culture to silence biblical truth and the name of Jesus.​ B. The Disciples' Response They return “to their own” (the church, fellow believers) when threatened.​ Principle: where you turn in crisis reveals much about your heart.​ They share the report as a prayer request and turn immediately to corporate prayer.​ They pray in alignment with Scripture (Psalm 2) and God's will, not just emotions.​ C. Content of Their Prayer (Acts 4:24–31) Acknowledge God as Creator and Sovereign Lord over heaven and earth.​ Rehearse Scripture about nations raging and rulers opposing the Lord and His Christ.​ Interpret persecution as part of God's sovereign purpose in Christ's suffering.​ Reactive element: “Lord, look on their threats.”​ Proactive element: ask for boldness to speak the Word, and for God's hand to heal with signs and wonders in Jesus' name.​ Result: the place is shaken, all are filled with the Holy Spirit, and they speak God's Word with boldness.​ V. Praying with the Word and God's Will Call to pray not only from need or emotion but aligned with Scripture.​ Examples of praying Scripture over needs (provision, healing, emotional and spiritual needs, relationships).​ Recognition that God's will includes timing; believers must be sensitive and obedient.​ Emphasis: there is power when prayer and the Word are joined.​ VI. From Problem to Launching Pad Observation: in Acts 4, the crisis launches the church into deeper proactive prayer, not retreat.​ Instead of praying primarily for safety and comfort, they pray for greater boldness and impact.​ Application: believers today should ask God to use trials to produce testimony, messages, and greater influence for His glory.​ VII. Call to a Proactive Kingdom Focus A. For Truth and Witness in a Confused Culture Culture tolerates generic “god talk” but reacts strongly to the exclusive claims of Jesus.​ Expect opposition when living and speaking biblical truth, without being obnoxious or hypocritical.​ The church must stand firm on Scripture, not be shaped by social media or worldly opinions.​ B. For Local and Global Mission Victory Church's call: reach Providence and the nations through evangelism and missions.​ Example: missions trips (Kenya, Sierra Leone, Liberia) and conferences to strengthen pastors and churches.​ Appeal for proactive prayer for missions: bold preaching, anointing, signs and wonders, and lasting fruit.​ C. For Revival and Awakening Distinction: revival for the church (bringing believers back to life), awakening for the lost.​ Invitation to pray for souls, discipleship, anointing, revival in churches, and awakening in the nation.​ Desire to create cultures of discipleship, evangelism, missions, and deep engagement with Scripture.​ VIII. Illustrations of Proactive Prayer in History and Life Personal testimony: long season in temporary housing, choosing contentment and kingdom focus while trusting God's timing.​ Application of Matthew 6:33: prioritizing God's kingdom and righteousness, trusting Him to add needed things.​ Biblical example: Job praying for his friends and receiving double restoration.​ Historical examples: John Knox's burden “give me Scotland or I die” and its influence.​ David Brainerd's fervent prayer for Native Americans and resulting impact.​ William Tyndale's martyrdom for translating Scripture and the later spread of English Bibles.​ The Moravians' 100-year prayer meeting and remarkable missionary sending.​ IX. Practical Application and Invitation Challenge: move beyond “needs-only” praying to kingdom-centered, proactive prayer.​ Specific areas to pray proactively: personal walk, church, ministries, missions, national awakening, and social issues.​ Encouragement to stay for times of corporate prayer, lifting up pastors, leaders, and global work.​ Final appeal: cultivate a passion that cries, “Lord, give us souls, give us revival, use my life and this church for Your glory.”

Email us: Will@faithfulpoliticspodcast.comIn this episode of Faithful Politics, we sit down with James Michael Smith, founder of  @DiscipleDojo for a conversation about how Christians engage culture without losing clarity or charity. Smith draws on his background in theology and martial arts to frame public discourse as sparring — pushing ideas hard while still treating the other person as a training partner rather than an enemy.The conversation moves across church culture, political polarization, and the habits that shape how we disagree. We discuss how identity gets tied to ideology, why online spaces intensify conflict, and what it looks like to challenge ideas without dehumanizing people. Smith also shares how his ministry works to form Christians who can think critically, hold convictions, and stay grounded in real-world relationships.Throughout the episode, the focus stays on discipline — intellectual, spiritual, and relational. The goal isn't to eliminate disagreement. It's to handle it in a way that sharpens understanding instead of tearing people apart. Disciple Dojo YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCMEea4p5qqTlpDrp3vl9G3A Guest Bio James Michael Smith is the founder of Disciple Dojo, a discipleship and Bible-training ministry that equips Christians to think clearly and engage culture with integrity. He holds an M.Div. from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary and is a Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt. Smith also founded Refugee Jitsu, a free program that teaches self-defense and resilience to refugee and underserved youth. His work brings together theology, cultural analysis, and disciplined conversation in both digital and in-person spaces.Support the show

Today we want to explore with our listeners a very great mystery; Why can't people agree with what is written in the Bible? Jesus prayed that all disciples would be one. In today's episode, evangelist Alan Hitchen to discuss this perplexing question. We will discuss: How opinions of Scripture must be approached with humility and a true desire to find the truth How with spiritual matters, God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise Men's gauge of success for the church versus how God measures it biblequestions.org

A new MP3 sermon from Berean Baptist Church is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Disciple-Making with Mike Boarts Subtitle: Being Bereans | Acts 17:11 Speaker: Sean E. Harris Broadcaster: Berean Baptist Church Event: Podcast Date: 2/12/2026 Length: 59 min.

"I'll take one large-size salvation, please - hold the suffering." Once the Disciples finally understood who the Lord is, He could disclose some more things to them. Yesterday Jim described three imperatives - three "musts" - that follow from the revelation that Jesus of Nazareth is the Messiah. One of those is that we must deny ourselves and take up our cross - pretty much the opposite of the popular, "your best life now" gospel. We're in Mark, chapter 8, with Jim.

Welcome to the Influence Podcast! I'm George P. Wood, executive editor of Influence magazine and your host. "In the last sixty years in the USA, some churches shifted strategies and adopted a model that focused almost exclusively on numerical expansion," writes Marroquin. "New sanctuaries and program adjustments were made with the goal of reaching the unchurched. And praise God, the model produced some good results." She goes to note that this model replaced Sunday school and discipleship groups to make room for more worship services. "Somehow, churches believed they would still be making disciples without intentionally placing emphasis on God's Word. The results are in: We have many churches filled with followers of Jesus who desperately need help." In this episode, I talk to Marroquin about what churches can do to refocus on discipleship, based on her new book, A Disciple's Growth: 7 Dimensions of Spiritual Formation. Elloy Marroquin is an ordained minister and national director of Christian Education, Discipleship, and Family Ministries for the Assemblies of God.

Private righteousness claims: I don't murder, I don't steal, I'm polite to others, I volunteer sometimes, I wash my hands after using the bathroom, I'm a good person. Overflow righteousness says: Our community redistributes resources so nobody goes hungry. We shelter people the state wants to cage, and absorb legal liability to protect the vulnerable. The budget reflects that we value other people's survival over institutional preservation. We organize collectively to confront systems that grind people down. Private righteousness is manageable, respectable, safe. Overflow righteousness can get you in trouble. Subscribe to us on iTunes! Sermon text: web | doc

Balanced Belief | 2nd Thessalonians 2:3

Paul takes Timothy with him as a missionary, and over ten years later he says to him, “Don't let anyone resent you for being young!” So how old was Timothy when Paul took him onto his team? And for that matter, how old were the disciples when Jesus called them?

A conversation with Rick about multiplying movements across two war zones in the Middle East.

If Jesus is the Christ... so what? As we've followed Mark's Gospel - and now would be a good time to remind ourselves that this is most likely Peter's Gospel - it's become clear that the Disciples' training has been leading up to this moment: "Who do you say that I am?" That will prove to be the defining question of their lives, our lives, and the course of the world. But, once we've answered that question in unison with Peter, what follows?

Learn the MAWL method (Model, Assist, Watch, Launch) and pick up practical tools that help your people actually do the work of evangelism and multiplication. If you want to ignite bold, active disciple-makers in your church or ministry, you won't want to miss this episode!

Examine your walk with Jesus through these four searching questions: Are you walking the path of the crowd or the path of a true disciple? Are you living a life of self-denial? Are you ready to take up your cross? Are you truly following Jesus? True discipleship calls for surrender, sacrifice, and wholehearted obedience. Let's choose the way of the disciple today and follow Christ with a life fully devoted to Him!

The Straight Bible series begins with Episode 1 breaking down one of the most important teachings in all of Scripture — The Sermon on the Mount.In this episode, we dive deep into Matthew chapters 5–7, starting with the foundation of Jesus' most famous sermon and what it reveals about the culture of the Kingdom of God. Many people misunderstand who Jesus was actually speaking to and how these teachings apply to disciples versus the crowds watching from the outside.We examine the historical context leading up to the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus' rising influence through miracles and healing, and how the Beatitudes define the values of true Kingdom living. This episode also explores modern misunderstandings about Christian identity, cultural Christianity, and what it truly means to follow Christ's teachings in today's world.If you've ever wanted a deeper, verse-by-verse breakdown of Jesus' most revolutionary sermon, this series is designed to walk through it in clear, practical, and uncompromising biblical context.

“But Jesus told him, ‘Anyone who puts a hand to the plow and then looks back is not fit for the Kingdom of God.’” (Luke 9:62 NLT) It took God one night to get Israel out of Egypt. But it took forty years to get Egypt out of Israel. The Israelites were always looking back. After they learned that giants occupied the Promised Land, “Their voices rose in a great chorus of protest against Moses and Aaron. ‘If only we had died in Egypt, or even here in the wilderness!’ they complained. ‘Why is the Lord taking us to this country only to have us die in battle? Our wives and our little ones will be carried off as plunder! Wouldn’t it be better for us to return to Egypt?’ Then they plotted among themselves, ‘Let’s choose a new leader and go back to Egypt!’” (Numbers 14:2–4 NLT). Some Christians take a similar approach to life. They’re always looking back. They say, “Remember the good old days—you know, before I was a Christian? Man, we would party! We had so much fun!” Really? Were they in fact the good old days? Were those times really as good as they seem now? Or is the memory of them a little distorted? Have those believers forgotten the emptiness? Have they forgotten the despondency? Have they forgotten the repercussions of the things they did? Have they forgotten that dull ache deep inside? Have they forgotten the havoc their actions brought on their family? They’ve conveniently forgotten about those things and remember only the few good times they had. That’s what the Israelites were doing. They were always looking back. But before we judge them, let’s realize that we often do the same thing. This is why Jesus said, “Anyone who puts a hand to the plow and then looks back is not fit for the Kingdom of God” (Luke 9:62 NLT). Discipleship is forward-facing. The baseball player Satchel Paige once said, “Don’t look back. Something might be gaining on you.” There’s spiritual truth in his words. Sometimes looking back can awaken old fears and anxieties. It can cause you to forget what God has done in your life. It can make you lose focus on what He has in store for you. Looking back is often a way of retreating to a safer, more familiar place and time. We need to remember, however, that God is our refuge. And the plan He has for us is as certain as anything in our past. God always blesses and rewards spiritual forward progress. You can’t live in two worlds. You can’t go forward when you’re looking back. And you can’t walk forward spiritually if you’re always looking over your shoulder. Disciples are called to change the world and not be changed by it. World changers see opportunities; those who are changed by this world see obstacles. World changers see bridges; those who are changed by this world see walls. Perspective is everything. Make sure you stay focused on what lies ahead. Reflection question: How can you keep your spiritual focus on what’s ahead of you instead of what’s behind you?

What is the lesson of the loaves? Whatever the lesson was, the Disciples were not grasping it. Maybe it was that the God who had made the wheat, as well as the Sun to shine on it and the rain to fall on it, could just as easily make the loaves. Maybe it was that, if you give your little bit to the Lord, your next problem is going to be where to put all the leftovers. We're in Mark 6, looking at the Feeding of the Five-Thousand.

The Disciples were doing it, but not getting it! If you feel like you're just taking the same life-lessons over and over again, this message may help you. The Twelve had the same problem. Jesus would show them a miraculous sign... they would marvel at it... but their minds didn't click into a new gear. So they went 'round again. In fact, Mark writes that their hearts were hardened!

This week we continue our series called "Experiences of a Disciple". This week's message is called "Loving Jesus" given by Pastor EJ Tena. If you would like to support this ministry text "GIVE" to 479-777-4264 visit trcchurch.snappages.site for more information about us and our ministry.

What does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus?  In first century Israel, you would regularly see rabbis walking along the road or teaching at your local synagogue. They were revered teachers, not just of the Torah, but of life. Behind the rabbi would be a group of students, called talmidim. This word literally means Student, Disciple, Learner, or Follower. Many scholars argue the best word for disciple in the English language is apprentice.  The goal wasn't to learn about something, but to become someone.  This message looks at our unhealthy and healthy responses to pain and suffering. It's important for us to realize that we can't live well enough to avoid all pain and suffering in this world. In fact, Jesus says in John 16:33, “In this world you will have tribulation (trouble).” That's not comforting. Well, I've got good news, that's only half of the verse. The second half of John 16:33 says, “But take heart; I have overcome the world.” In this message, we're going to talk about ways to face our pain instead of stuffing it. When you stuff it, you are creating a volcano. Since pain is inevitable; it is essential for us to learn how to deal with our pain and suffering in healthy ways instead of unhealthy ways. Here's the bottom line: Pain always points! What is your pain pointing to? It's time to go beyond the symptom to the core issue. It's time for us to do more than cope; it is time for us to heal. Do you want to heal? Tune into the message and the choise to heal.Support the show

Send a textIn this episode, Pastor Dom teaches us about the enemy of increase in our lives. Psalm 115:13-1513 He will bless those who fear the Lord, Both small and great. 14 May the Lord give you increase more and more, You and your children. 15 May you be blessed by the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.3 John 2 2 Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.Deuteronomy 28:1313 And the Lord will make you the head and not the tail; you shall be above only, and not be beneath, if you heed the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you today, and are careful to observe them.Exodus 20:33 “You shall have no other gods before Me.Ephesians 4:2727 and do not give the devil an opportunity.2 Corinthians 10:55 …bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,John 10:1010 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.John 8:4444 …for he is a liar and the father of it.Jeremiah 1:55 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you;2 Corinthians 5:1717 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. Romans 8:3131 …If God is for us, who can be against us?2 Corinthians 10:55 …bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, 1 Peter 5:88 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.Hebrews 12:22 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith,John 3:3030 He must increase, but I must decrease.Psalm 34:10 …But those who seek the Lord shall not lack any good thing.

In DTWOL… TIME challenges the belief that time heals, fixes, or saves, and points us instead to the only true God who sovereignly appoints every moment of time. While we live within time, God works above it—using waiting, seasons, and delay as intentional discipleship workmanship to form Christlikeness in us. Scripture reveals that God saves instantly but sanctifies purposefully, cultivating patience, renewing the mind, and producing fruit by the energeia of the Holy Spirit over time. This episode calls disciples to live alertly, trust God's timing, and respond faithfully while time is still given. God's Word: Galatians 4:4; Ecclesiastes 3:1; 2 Peter 3:8–9; Philippians 2:13; Romans 12:2; Matthew 28:19–20; Additional Scripture references are woven throughout the Godcast and can be gleaned from the full transcript.
