Podcasts about Following Jesus

How should we live now so that we will have no regrets later? As we look at the life of Jonathan Edwards who modeled living with integrity and eternity in view, grounded in Jesus' words from Matthew 5:37. Relying on Christ rather than self-effort, Edwards sought to be a man of his word, shaping his life, ministry, and perseverance through trial. In a time of spiritual coldness, God used his faithfulness to bring a great awakening, reminding us that when we depend on Christ, He empowers us to live truthfully and use our lives for His glory.

Following Jesus is sometimes presented as the easy road, a path of safety and happiness. Read the New Testament, and you'll see a much different story: following Jesus is a narrow road that is often marked by pain and persecution. On the night before Jesus was crucified, Jesus gathered with his disciples for the Passover meal so he could prepare them for what was to come. In the face of suffering and death, Jesus said, Do not let your hearts be troubled (John 14:1), and in the following four chapters he taught his disciples how to trust and abide in Him when life hurts the most. Every Sunday in March we will be encouraged by Jesus' words as he teaches us how to remain in him.

Following Jesus is not about our convenience, comfort, self-advancement or even self-improvement. Following Jesus is radical, risky and life-altering. When Jesus says, “follow me” we often hear it in the key of our own theme music — anticipating the outcomes, status, success and results we want. But Jesus flips the script with two encounters in Matthew 8, exposing the true cost of discipleship — sacrificial surrender and reordered surrender — revealing the Kingdom of Heaven is an all in or not at all endeavor. Half faith and conditional faith have no place with a God who asks for it all. His Kingdom over everything. 

Pastor Rodney taught that following Jesus was never meant to be a solo journey—God designed His people to live and serve in shared strength, where burdens, responsibilities, and spiritual empowerment are carried together in community. Just as God gave Moses leaders to share the weight and the Spirit to multiply the impact, believers today are called to step up for one another, knowing that Jesus ultimately shares our burdens and empowers us through His Spirit.

“Worthy of It All”Mark 14:1-11Having recently completed our series “None Like Jesus” let's continue to “Behold Him” by embarking on a new study through the Gospel of Mark. Mark's Gospel is the shortest of the four Gospels and it is action-packed from start to finish – as evidenced by the word “immediately” used over 40 times. Mark wrote to believers, probably Roman believers, who were no strangers to persecution. And he wanted to disciple his readers to be strong in their faith by encouraging them to look to their Mighty Messiah, the Son of God, who remained steadfastly faithful even while becoming their Suffering Servant who died for them. Mark's Gospel is a call to all believers to fearlessly “Follow Jesus” because they can trust Him completely.

Have you ever asked God for help and received an answer you didn't want? We often come to God expecting a dramatic fix, a breakthrough moment, or a clear resolution. Instead, sometimes He gives us a simple instruction. In this final message of Your Best Yes, we look at the story of Naaman in 2 Kings 5, a powerful, respected man desperate for healing who almost walked away because God's solution felt too ordinary. Naaman's story reminds us that the best yes is often an ordinary yes. The small step. The unimpressive act of obedience. The humble decision to forgive, confess, serve, or try again. Healing didn't come when Naaman understood the plan. It came when he obeyed it. If you've been resisting a step because it feels too small or too slow, this message is an invitation to trust God with the next faithful thing. Your delay does not cancel His grace, but your obedience opens you to receive it.

In this stand-alone message, He Is Able, we reflect on the words of Ephesians 3:20–21 and the story of God's faithfulness through seasons of transition. The apostle Paul writes these words from prison, reminding the church that the God who saves is also the God who continues to work beyond what we can ask or imagine. This message explores how that promise has shaped the journey of Grace Hill Church over the past decade, and how it continues to strengthen faith when life feels uncertain, fragile, or unfinished. Through a series of personal and congregational stories, we see how God proves Himself faithful in many different moments: when we aren't praying for it, when we are praying for it, when we don't know what comes next, when we are desperate, and even when God asks us to wait. Again and again, God works in ways that cannot be predicted or engineered, reminding us that the story of faith is never built on human ability but on God's power and grace. Ultimately, the hope behind every story points back to the center of the Christian faith—the cross and resurrection of Jesus. The God who raised Christ from the dead is still bringing life where people expect only endings. Whether your faith feels strong or fragile today, this message is an invitation to remember that the same God who has carried His people in the past is still able to carry you now.

In Mark 2, Jesus does something surprising. He sits down for a meal with tax collectors and sinners.  People society had written off and avoided.In this message, Pastor Ken explores what this moment reveals about the heart of Jesus. While many systems of religion focus on cleaning ourselves up before approaching God, Jesus moves toward people in their brokenness and invites them to follow Him.Send a text

Who are you really following—your favorite pastor, preacher, or platform? Or the Word of God? In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef takes us to the spiritually troubled church in Corinth, where believers were dividing into camps: “I follow Paul… I follow Apollos… I follow Cephas…” (1 Corinthians 1:12). These were godly leaders—yet the “cult of personality” was producing division instead of unity. Dr. Youssef offers a simple heart-check that still applies today: If your confidence starts with “My pastor says…” you may be leaning on a human leader. If your confidence starts with “The Word of God says…” you're anchored to the infallible source of Truth. You'll be reminded that: No human leader is flawless—only Scripture is fully trustworthy. Cults don't make converts to Christ; they make converts to a personality. A church submitted to the authority and inerrancy of the Bible is a church positioned for humility, unity, and spiritual health. Placing yourself under God's Word is the first step toward living holy in a desperately sick culture. If you've felt pulled by competing voices—even Christian ones—this devotional will help you reset your confidence where it belongs: on Jesus Christ and His unchanging Word. Scripture Focus: 1 Corinthians 1:10, 1 Corinthians 1:12Key Truth: One Savior. One Way. One Truth—Jesus Christ.

David and Todd discuss Matthew 14:22–33, where Jesus walks on water and Peter steps out of the boat in faith. Following Jesus often requires leaving places of safety, learning to trust His presence in the storm, and fixing our eyes on Him rather than our fear.

In this episode of LCC:Remix, the team continues the conversation from Sunday by exploring how the story of Jesus was part of God's plan long before His birth. The Old Testament contains over 300 prophecies pointing to the coming Messiah, showing that the gospel was not accidental or reactive, but intentionally revealed throughout Scripture.The discussion also focuses on what real transformation looks like. Following Jesus is not simply about changing outward behavior or getting better at rules. It is about being changed from the inside out, becoming a new creation as Christ reshapes our hearts and our desires.One powerful example discussed is the woman with the issue of blood, whose desperate faith led her to reach for Jesus in hope of healing. Her story may connect to the prophecy in Malachi 4:2, which speaks of healing in the Messiah's wings. Her faith reminds us that recognizing our need for Jesus often opens the door for God to work in powerful ways.The conversation also touches on how conviction can be a sign that God is at work in our lives. When sin begins to bother us, it often reveals the work of the Holy Spirit shaping our hearts and drawing us closer to Christ.The team reflects on why many people struggled to recognize Jesus as the Messiah and how one of the greatest barriers to truth can be believing we already understand it. As God's truth challenges our assumptions, we sometimes experience tension that forces us to reconsider what we thought we knew.Throughout the episode, the discussion returns to the foundation Jesus gave for all of life: loving God and loving people. From that foundation, everything else in the Christian life flows.Join the conversation as LCC:Remix goes deeper into these ideas and explores how the Holy Spirit continues to open our eyes to truth and lead us into a life transformed by Christ.

What if leadership in God's Kingdom isn't about being seen, but about being underneath? As we celebrate 14 years as a church and reflect on our anniversary theme, Still Building, Pastor Alvin walks through the story of the prodigal son and challenges us to rethink what it truly means to follow Jesus. Building leaders is really about building servants. And servants are the ones who prepare the table, welcome the lost home, and help carry the weight for others. At the center of this message is the power of being underneath. Following Jesus is a gradual process where your sense of self-importance decreases while your love for others increases. It can feel like you're going into the ground, but in reality, God is positioning you to lift others up. Just as Jesus went underneath us and raised us with Him, we're called to take that same posture in our homes, our church, and our city. Don't mistake someone else being celebrated for your rejection. “Other people are important too” does not mean they are more important than you. The Father is able to handle your needs too. Because when you stay in the house, everything He has is already yours.   ABOUT US At Nashville Life Church, our vision is dedicated to following Jesus & building leaders.

Following Jesus's example in Mark 1:35, by quietening our minds and environment.

Following Jesus is more than a private belief—it's a bold, active faith. In Mark 2, four friends refuse to let obstacles keep their paralyzed friend from encountering Jesus. When the crowd blocks the door, they climb the roof, tear it open, and lower him to Jesus. Their faith wasn't passive. It was persistent, courageous, and sacrificial. This message explores what it means to be the kind of follower who does whatever it takes to clear the way for others to meet Jesus, trusting that once we bring people to His feet, He will do what only He can do.---Kory Lantz is the Executive Director of Transformation Ministries—a South Bend nonprofit that helps under-resourced youth to encounter Jesus, engage others with the gospel, and thrive together. Kory and his wife Ali launched Transformation in 2009 and have watched the Lord expand their ministry since then to become a pillar in the community. Known for his visionary leadership and deep relational connection with others, Kory is most passionate about making disciples in his first ministry: his family. Father to four children (and often a few teenage boys who live with them), he thrives helping his kids know that following Jesus is the greatest adventure of your life.

After failure, hesitation, and regret, what does restoration look like? At the end of the Gospel of John, Jesus meets Peter on the shore and asks him a piercing question: “Do you love Me?” It's not meant to shame him. It's meant to restore him. In this final passage of John, we see that following Jesus without hesitation begins with an honest look at the condition of our hearts. As we conclude our 18-month verse-by-verse study through John, we are reminded why this Gospel was written: that we might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing we may have life in His name (John 20:30–31). In John 21:15–25, Jesus confronts Peter's three denials with three loving questions. He distinguishes between a natural, brotherly love and a supernatural, self-sacrificing love. Peter answers honestly, and in that honesty, Jesus restores him and recommissions him: “Feed My lambs. Tend My sheep. Follow Me.” This passage presses three critical questions into our lives: - What kind of love do you have for Jesus? - Will you follow Jesus if it costs you everything? - Are you growing in your love, capacity, and commitment? Jesus not only restores Peter, He tells him that following faithfully will eventually cost him his life. And Peter follows anyway. The man who once denied Christ becomes the preacher of Acts 2, boldly proclaiming the Gospel as thousands are saved. He becomes the shepherd who exhorts others to care for the flock of God. Restoration led to growth. Growth led to fruitfulness. The same is true for us. Jesus is patient with our failures, but He calls us forward. He invites us to stop comparing our calling to others and to focus on one simple command: “You follow Me.” A fruitful life is found not in hesitation, but in wholehearted surrender. If you are in the Arroyo Grande area, we would love to invite you to join us at Harvest Church as we continue growing in God's Word, worshiping Jesus, and walking in authentic Christian community. Whether you are new to faith, returning to church, or looking to go deeper in your discipleship, there is a place for you here. Join us Sundays at 9am & 11am. For more information, visit www.agharvest.org. This message is part of our ongoing Bible teaching ministry at Harvest Church, where we are committed to verse-by-verse study, Christ-centered preaching, and clear expository preaching that equips people for following Jesus faithfully in everyday life.

Following Jesus requires three essential components: denying yourself, taking up your cross, and following Him. Denying yourself means yielding to God's control and saying no to your own desires. Taking up your cross involves willingly enduring shame and suffering for Christ's sake, publicly displaying your allegiance to Him. Following Jesus means living as He lived with humility, compassion, and grace. This daily decision to die to self is challenging but necessary for true discipleship. The choice is between temporary worldly gains and eternal significance. With God's Spirit empowering us, we can do hard things and discover a life of purpose and meaning rather than mere existence.

Let's examine the five urges we need to resist. An urge, as you know, is a strong desire or impulse. And all-too-often we are victims of our strong desires or impulses—our urges—which take us down the wrong path and cause trouble. We all have them, so I simply want to point out some urges we need to be aware of and by God's grace, resist. Resist the urge to let your emotions and enthusiasm launch you into unwise action. I admit too often this has been my modus operandi. I get a bright idea, an emotional urge, and I think it must be the right thing to do because I feel so strongly about it. And then, without proper thought or consideration or prayer, I plunge headlong into a project that is either unwise or poorly planned. Certainly, we want to be people of action; we don't want to be handicapped by fear of making the wrong move. Walking by faith will take us outside our comfort zones and lead us to attempt things that can only be done with God's help. Following Jesus is never risk-free. But at the same time, the Bible tells us God does things decently and in order, and we need to be cautious not to move too quickly based mainly on how we feel. Someone has said feelings have zero IQ, meaning they may be strong but they're not necessarily smart. Here is one thing I've learned that has helped to curb my tendency to launch into something prematurely, and it's pretty simple: Just sleep on it. It may look like the greatest idea you've ever had today, but a good night's sleep could totally change your perspective. That may mean literally wait until tomorrow, or it may mean keep sleeping on it until you have clearer thoughts and plans. Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed (Proverbs 15:22). If your plan is of God, it will stand the test of time. Seek counsel from the right people, and of course, mainly seek God's counsel. You can save yourself a lot of trouble and avoid wasted time if you resist the urge to launch into something based solely on your emotions.

Pastor/State Rep. Nate Schatzline brings a prophetic challenge to Grace City Church: embrace the wilderness, kill the normal, and live with holy consistency in both “locusts and honey.” From Matthew 3, he calls the church to be a bold, consecrated movement that prepares the way for the Lord and refuses to grow familiar with God's presence. The message culminates in a historic commissioning announcement that you won't want to miss. Support the showThanks for listening! Go to www.StrongerManNation.com for more resources.

Do we live with integrity when no one is watching? Are our private thoughts and habits aligned with the holiness Christ commands? Billy Graham, one of the most recognized evangelists in history, sought not only to preach Christ but to live in a way that honored Him. Billy Graham built his life and ministry on integrity. Through daily time in God's Word, reliance on the Holy Spirit, and personal safeguards like the Modesto Manifesto, he guarded his heart and walk from moral failure. Though not perfect, he pursued holiness with sincerity, striving to be the same man in private as in public. His life reminds us that lasting impact flows from a life surrendered to Christ, lived with purity, humility, and devotion.

Following Jesus | Mark 8 | Opened Eyes by Pastor Dan DeBell

Dr. Tim Sperduto - Galatians 5:16-18

Peter didn't wake up one day and decide to deny Jesus—he drifted there. In this message, we trace Peter's journey from deep devotion (Luke 5), to following “at a distance” (Luke 22), and finally to a powerful restoration and recommissioning (John 21). If you've felt your faith slipping into subtle distance, this is a wake-up call—and an invitation to come back close.

Following Jesus isn't easy, the climb is real, but it's worth it because the victory is already won in Christ. The mystery we've been searching for isn't success or status; it's Christ in you, the hope of glory. And when He lives in you, you don't just endure the journey, you help others grow, knowing one day it will all be worth it.Expect the sufferings of Christ in youExperience the mystery of Christ in youExtend the maturity of Christ through youLife Group Discussion:When has following Jesus cost you something socially, professionally, or personally—and how did you respond?If you truly believed the power of God lives in you, how would that change your confidence, anxiety, or decision-making?What fears or excuses keep you from sharing Jesus more openly?

What does it actually mean to follow Jesus? In Luke 5:1–11, we see an invitation that changed everything for Peter, James, and John. After a night of empty nets, Jesus calls them to trust Him, witness His power, and leave everything behind for a new purpose. This message challenges us to move beyond casual belief and into real discipleship. Jesus doesn't just invite us to attend church or clean up our lives. He invites us to Himself. And as we follow Him, He transforms us and sends us to invest in others.• Jesus calls the willing, not the perfect• Following Jesus means relationship, surrender, and trust• As we follow Him, we become “fishers of people”Key Scriptures:Luke 5:1–11Matthew 16:24–26John 21:1–19What is your next step of obedience?

But Nicodemus offers us a different model of how some come to the faith. Not one with blinding lights, not one with a sudden transformation, but one that has questions and wonderings and doubts. It is a slow transformation of the heart and mind and soul that eventually gets there when it matters most. Listen to or read Bingham's entire sermon by clicking “read more.”

Following Jesus is free—but it isn't cheap. This message invites us to examine our loyalties, count the cost of discipleship, and consider what it truly means to surrender our lives to Christ.

Following Jesus requires a massive shift in our allegiance as we rely on His grace to put off living for ourselves and to put on living for Him every day.

Psalm 123 speaks to those overwhelming moments when we feel like we've reached our breaking point. This Psalm of Ascent was sung by ancient pilgrims facing grueling journeys to Jerusalem, and it offers timeless wisdom for modern struggles. When life feels too much to bear, the world offers temporary solutions like accumulation, distraction, and isolation. However, the psalm calls us to lift our eyes to God, who is both powerfully enthroned in heaven and intimately merciful. Rather than viewing God as a police officer looking for violations, we can see Him as a potter who gets His hands dirty to transform us. Following Jesus doesn't promise an easy path, but it offers hope that transformation happens precisely in the midst of life's messy, difficult circumstances.

Whether you're new to the Christian faith or whether you've been following Jesus Christ for many years, understanding grace is essential to salvation and walking by faith. On this episode of The Verdict, Pastor John Munro continues a new study on Next Steps in Following Jesus.

Following Jesus doesn't always steer us around trouble—sometimes it leads straight into it. Pastor Jonathan Evans reminds us that Christ's word carries authority even when life feels completely out of control, and that everything ultimately lives under God's Son.

Living Water: The Woman at the Well – John 4:1–26 In this episode of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane walk through John 4:1–26, the powerful encounter between Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well. What begins as a simple conversation about water becomes a life-changing revelation about worship, identity, and living water that never runs dry. Together, they explore how Jesus meets us in unexpected places, crosses cultural and personal barriers, and speaks directly to our deepest thirst. This passage reminds us that no past is too complicated, no question too bold, and no heart too far for the transforming presence of Christ. If you've ever felt unseen, unqualified, or spiritually dry—this conversation is for you. ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Following Jesus will cost you everything — but with the power of the Holy Spirit, it will give you the peace you've been searching for. In this message, Christine Caine unpacks Jesus' radical call to discipleship in Mark 8, confronting a self-focused, image-driven culture with a countercultural invitation: deny yourself, listen to the Holy Spirit, take up your cross, and follow Him — fully and wholeheartedly. Jesus never asked for part of our lives. He calls us to an ALL IN faith — one where surrender leads to freedom, obedience leads to joy, and losing your life for His sake is the only way to truly find it.
