Stay Informed - Get our newsletter: http://eepurl.com/hPViAr   Empowering Every Believer: Activating the Priesthood of All Believers - Disciple Maker's Podcast Ep. 7   Unlocking the Power of the Holy Spirit: A Call to Bold Witness and Total Surrender   In this impactful episode, Josh Howard and Jason dive deep into the significance of the Holy Spirit in the life of a believer. They discuss the challenges modern Christians face, including the startling statistic that 98% of Christians in America never share their faith outside of their immediate families. They highlight two main problems: the lack of witnessing and the often forgotten role of the Holy Spirit in many churches. Through scriptural examples, particularly from the Book of Acts, they showcase the transformative power of the Holy Spirit and the necessity of full surrender and consecration to experience true spiritual empowerment. They argue that without daily dying to oneself and being filled afresh with the Spirit, believers cannot effectively witness or make disciples. The conversation underscores the critical need for revival and a personal challenge to be a true burnt offering for God's glory. Join them in a heartfelt prayer of surrender, and take the first steps toward becoming a vessel for the Spirit's power in your life.   Get Discipleship.org's premium Podcast Feed: https://disciplemakerspodcast.supercast.com/    Key Takeaways    00:00 Introduction and Setting the Stage 00:52 The Role of the Holy Spirit in the Church 03:01 The Power of Witnessing and the Holy Spirit 05:57 Daily Surrender and Empowerment 12:18 Living Sacrifice and Community Support 22:35 The Demands of Discipleship 23:14 The Reasonableness of Total Surrender 24:27 Living as a Burnt Offering 30:02 The Power of the Holy Spirit 32:17 A Call to Radical Transformation 37:42 Prayer of Surrender 45:00 Final Thoughts and Encouragement   Check out our Blogs: https://discipleship.org/blog/  See Below for a longer description: Podcast Recap: S3 Ep. 2 – Life in the Spirit In this episode, Jason and Josh dive into a real, honest conversation about what it means to live a life empowered by the Holy Spirit. They go back and forth between light-hearted banter and weighty truths, creating a natural rhythm that feels both grounded and inspiring. They kick things off with a laugh, joking about how hard it can be to start episodes smoothly—before easing into the heart of the conversation. The big focus? The Church's need to make more room for the Holy Spirit—not just in Sunday services, but in everyday life. Jason shares how some churches unintentionally sideline the Spirit, joking about the tendency to worship “God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Bible.” Josh jumps in to remind us that real power—boldness, witness, and transformation—comes from the Holy Spirit. They unpack Acts 1:8, where Jesus tells His followers they'll receive power when the Holy Spirit comes. Josh points out a sobering stat: 98% of American Christians never share their faith outside their family. The answer isn't trying harder—it's surrendering deeper. Josh describes how the disciples went from hiding in fear to boldly preaching the gospel after being filled with the Spirit. He draws from Romans to say the same power that raised Jesus now lives in us—meaning we're equipped for far more than we realize. A key theme in the episode is daily surrender. Josh shares a vivid metaphor: believers “leak,” so we need to keep coming back for a fresh filling. They talk about how true revival starts when we lay ourselves down—day after day—like living sacrifices. They also explore the idea that you can't have Pentecost without Calvary. In other words, the power of the Spirit comes through death to self. Drawing on Old Testament sacrifices, they paint a picture of what it means to live fully surrendered—acknowledging our tendency, like a goat, to crawl off the altar. Community plays a big role here too. Josh emphasizes how we need each other to keep living that surrendered life—through encouragement, accountability, and prayer. Toward the end, they call out how the Western Church often gets caught up in debates and performance, losing sight of the simple, powerful truth: Jesus rose, and His Spirit lives in us. They warn against letting the flesh take the lead again and call for a return to Spirit-led living. The episode wraps with lyrics from a Casting Crowns song that challenge superficial faith and call for genuine heart change. It's a fitting close to a conversation all about real transformation—from the inside out. Jason and Josh finish with a heartfelt prayer, asking for the Spirit's guidance, power, and presence to shape every part of our lives. Bottom line: If you're hungry for deeper discipleship and lasting impact, it all starts with surrender—and the Holy Spirit is ready to lead the way.

Scripture as the Curriculum: They challenge the idea that extra curriculum is necessary. Josh makes it clear: disciple-making movements around the world stick to scripture, and it works—because the Spirit is the true teacher. Misuse and Misunderstanding: Jason calls out how people often twist scripture to back up their own opinions, rather than letting it speak for itself. He warns against treating the Bible like a suggestion box, a habit influenced by overly rational approaches from past centuries. Obedience Matters: Reading the Bible isn't the goal—living it out is. The hosts point to Jesus' parable of the wise and foolish builders as a reminder that hearing without doing leads nowhere. Keeping It Simple: Jason shares a story about leading a study in Colossians where he got caught up in sounding smart, but realized deep insights didn't lead to actual discipleship. Sometimes, less is more. Discovery Bible Study (DBS): They're big fans of DBS—a simple, powerful tool used globally. Four questions guide the study: What does this teach us about God? What does it teach us about people? How can we obey it? Who can we share it with? Practical Steps: The guys offer ideas for churches and individuals to make scripture central again—like doing regular, communal scripture studies using the DBS method. A Global Perspective: Josh wraps up with stories of believers around the world who cling to scripture despite persecution. He challenges listeners to take the Word seriously—and live it out.

Kicking things off with some lighthearted banter, they dive into why spreading the gospel abundantly is crucial for effective evangelism. Josh explains that overseeding is like a farmer scattering seeds generously—more seeds mean a greater harvest. This principle fuels disciple-making movements worldwide, especially in places like India and China, where rapid growth happens because believers share the gospel frequently and widely. A key takeaway? Repetition matters. In the West, gospel-sharing is often sporadic, but Josh emphasizes that the more we sow, the more we reap. Jason clears up a common misconception: good marketing isn't the same as evangelism. True gospel sowing happens through personal, intentional conversations—not just inviting people to church. Josh uses a relatable analogy: if he wanted to set his son up with Jason's daughter, he wouldn't start by criticizing her. Instead, he'd highlight his son's best qualities. Evangelism should be the same—helping people see Jesus' beauty, not just pointing out their flaws. Jason brings up the parable of the sower, reminding us that we can't control how people receive the gospel, but we're called to plant seeds everywhere. The discussion then shifts to a major issue in modern Christianity: the watered-down “salvation-only” gospel. Josh and Jason push for a full gospel message—one that includes both forgiveness and submission to Jesus as King. Josh warns against separating salvation from Jesus' lordship, a mindset that has led to consumer-driven Christianity with little real transformation. He even describes a needed “second conversion,” where believers fully commit to Jesus' authority. Jason paints a vivid picture: accepting Jesus' sacrifice but refusing His leadership is like enjoying a lavish meal He paid for but not inviting Him to the table. The episode also tackles the common debate over the “minimum entrance requirements” for heaven, arguing that this mindset misses the point. Instead of asking, “What's the least I can do?” they encourage listeners to pursue full devotion to Jesus. For practical application, Josh introduces tools like the "15-second testimony" and the "three circles gospel presentation," designed to help believers share their faith naturally in everyday conversations. The key? Talk about Jesus as easily as you'd recommend a great restaurant or movie. They wrap up with a challenge: tell someone why following Jesus is good news, and ask if they've considered it. Many people are just waiting for someone to bring it up. Bottom line? Evangelism isn't about technique—it's about loving Jesus so much that talking about Him becomes second nature. Sow seeds generously, trust God with the harvest, and watch what He does.

They break down the biblical foundation, historical examples, and practical ways to incorporate these practices into daily life and ministry. The conversation kicks off with lighthearted banter before shifting to the episode's core theme: cultivating a culture of radical prayer and fasting. Josh emphasizes that some of the most impactful church movements rely on these disciplines, citing historical revivals that began with a few dedicated people seeking God through prayer and fasting. Referencing Matthew 6, the hosts discuss how Jesus taught about fasting—not for public recognition, but as a way to deepen one's connection with God. Jason points out a common misunderstanding: fasting isn't just about giving up food—it's about creating space for God to work. He shares how his church's 21-day prayer and fasting tradition before Easter fosters spiritual renewal. Josh and Jason offer practical tips for getting started, urging listeners to begin with small steps—like skipping one meal a week to focus on prayer. They highlight the story of Charles Finney and Pastor Nash, who fasted and prayed before Finney's revivals, underscoring how essential these practices were to their ministry's success. The hosts also touch on the scientific benefits of fasting, such as increased mental clarity and discipline. They introduce tools like Dick Eastman's "prayer wheel" to help structure prayer time and emphasize the importance of silence in prayer—something Jason admits was a struggle for him initially. As the episode wraps up, Josh challenges listeners to take action—whether by fasting a meal a week, dedicating focused prayer time, or involving their community in these spiritual disciplines. They encourage listeners to share their experiences and reach out for support, reinforcing the idea that prayer and fasting aren't just personal practices but catalysts for transformation in families, churches, and beyond.

They kick off with some lighthearted banter before getting real about the challenge of practicing what you preach. They revisit the first two principles: reclaiming disciple-making as the church's core mission and having a clear, biblical definition of discipleship. But this third principle? It's where the rubber meets the road. Josh shares a hard truth—many church leaders, behind closed doors, admit they're not actively leading people to faith outside of the pulpit. This gap between what's preached and what's practiced creates what they call “charade mode”—a dangerous disconnect where leaders appear to be disciple-makers but aren't living it out. The discussion gets practical. Jesus warned against performing faith for show, and Josh and Jason emphasize that leading from the front means real, everyday disciple-making. It's not just for pastors—every Christian is called to model it at home, at work, and in their communities. They illustrate this with a powerful story about Alexander the Great. When a young soldier named Alexander fled from battle, the general told him: Change your name or change your ways. The message? If we call ourselves disciples of Jesus, we need to live like it. Josh highlights the need for daily repentance—not just for major sins, but as a constant realignment with Jesus. Jason stresses soaking in the Gospels, letting Jesus' life shape our own. They remind listeners that disciple-making isn't about striving alone; it's fueled by the Holy Spirit, who empowers believers to walk this out every day. They also acknowledge the internal struggle—Paul himself wrestled with doing what's right (Romans 7). But leaning on God's grace and being intentional about obedience is the key. As the episode wraps up, Josh challenges listeners to commit to modeling disciple-making and tell someone for accountability. Jason encourages leaning into God's help and staying rooted in His Word. They close with a powerful prayer, asking God to bring conviction, expose what needs to change, and strengthen hearts for the journey ahead. At its core, this episode is a call to authentic, everyday disciple-making—not as a concept, but as a lifestyle.

Their lighthearted yet insightful conversation focuses on what it means to be a disciple and the core responsibilities involved in disciple-making. Why Clear Definitions Matter Josh emphasizes that without a clear definition of discipleship, confusion and inconsistency arise. He notes that asking 100 Christians for their definition of a disciple would likely yield 100 different answers. Clarity, he argues, is essential for effective disciple-making. What is a Disciple? A disciple is someone following Jesus, being changed by Jesus, and joining the mission of Jesus. Josh breaks this down into three key components—following, transformation, and mission—highlighting their central role in discipleship. Day-One Calling and Transformation Jason reflects on Jesus's call to His first disciples in Matthew 4:19, stressing that this transformative calling happened on day one—not after years of refinement. Following Jesus involves an ongoing process of change and closeness to Him. Challenges in Modern Christianity Josh points out that many Christians treat following and being transformed by Jesus as optional. He urges believers to move beyond shallow engagement and pursue genuine transformation through repentance, confession, and surrender. Head, Heart, and Hands Discipleship Jason shares Bobby Harrington's framework for holistic discipleship: Head: Intellectual surrender to Jesus Heart: Experiencing transformation Hands: Actively engaging in Jesus's mission This framework aligns with the greatest commandment—to love God with all heart, mind, soul, and strength—and provides a balanced approach to discipleship. Defining Disciple-Making Jason underscores that disciple-making is intentional and relational. It's about forming meaningful relationships that help others follow Jesus, experience transformation, and engage in His mission. Practical Steps for Church Leaders Josh and Jason challenge church leaders to develop clear, actionable discipleship plans—and ensure they're implemented effectively. They stress the importance of guiding believers through intentional spiritual growth.   Overcoming Fear and Stagnation Jason acknowledges the fear many feel about stepping into disciple-making roles. Josh encourages listeners to embrace the process, trusting that God works through imperfections and initial missteps. Motivating Believers The hosts share strategies to engage believers, using personal stories and biblical examples to highlight the life-changing impact of true discipleship. Next Steps Josh recommends practical ways for listeners to evaluate their discipleship journey and create simple pathways for growth. He closes with an invitation to explore resources at discipleship.org and engage with the disciple-making community. Conclusion: This episode challenges believers and church leaders to define discipleship clearly and pursue intentional, relational disciple-making aligned with Jesus's mission. The hosts balance theological depth with practical advice, leaving listeners equipped and inspired.

In this bonus episode, Jacob shares his recent appearance on Eschatology Matters, where he joined host Josh Howard to discuss the question: Is Christian Nationalism Dead? The conversation explores Christian nationalism's trajectory, its theological underpinnings, and its implications for governance. Jacob presents a Christian libertarian critique of the movement, emphasizing the biblical limitations of civil government and the importance of separating state power from religious enforcement. He argues that while Christian nationalists correctly identify cultural and political problems, their reliance on the state as an instrument of change is misguided and historically counterproductive.The discussion also delves into the role of Romans 13, the concept of sphere sovereignty, and the balance between advocating for Christian cultural influence and avoiding the pitfalls of using government power to enforce morality. Jacob and Josh analyze differing views on theonomy, proportional justice, and the biblical foundation for civil law, contrasting Christian nationalism with a more limited libertarian approach to governance. Ultimately, Jacob contends that Christian engagement in politics should focus on reducing state overreach rather than repurposing its mechanisms for a new agenda.Full Shownotes At BiblicalAnarchyPodcast.com

Drawing from Malcolm Gladwell's “tipping point” concept, they explain that once 16% of churches embrace disciple-making, it can trigger a larger movement across the country. The issue isn't that people don't know how to make disciples—it's that they don't want to. Josh and Jason stress that real change happens when disciple-making becomes embedded in a church's DNA, not just another ministry program. Jason shares how his Iowa church is reshaping its culture—turning every ministry into a disciple-making opportunity. Whether serving coffee or leading worship, everything is intentionally tied to discipleship. Josh reminds leaders that culture starts at the top. Leaders must model disciple-making, celebrate progress (not just success), and reinforce the mission constantly. The hosts emphasize the importance of celebrating even small disciple-making efforts. They introduce the idea of “sucking forward”—embracing failures as part of the journey and encouraging leaders to keep pushing forward. Josh and Jason challenge leaders to be among the first to embrace disciple-making, even before it's mainstream. These pioneers will be key to hitting the 16% tipping point and sparking a larger movement. Josh closes with a powerful analogy: Leaders shouldn't just measure church culture; they should set it. Shaping a disciple-making culture requires intentional action, not passive observation. The episode wraps up with an invitation to engage with Discipleship.org for resources and support. Josh and Jason also invite listeners to their upcoming forum in Houston, where they'll continue the conversation and equip leaders for disciple-making.

Crime & Punishment Episode #4 of 4.  In the late 1940s and 1950s, alongside the better known “Red Scare” that targeted alleged internal political enemies - American Communists - the US government led a crusade against gay men and women in the military and civil service. During the “Lavender Scare,” thousands of people were fired or forced from their jobs, dishonorably discharged from the military, and denied positions in the US government because of their sexuality. And those policies were enforced for decades - through “liberal” administrations, and the federal decriminalization of same-sex sex in 2003 - with life-ruining, and life-ending consequences for tens of thousands of Americans. And since we're basically reliving this awful period in history because Republicans believe that a time of queer persecution, women as second class citizens, and segregation and racism is America's “great” era, we better know the history so we can know how to fight.  Bibliography Allan Berube, Coming Out Under Fire: The History of Gay Men and Women in World War II (University of North Carolina Press, 2010).  Julian Carter, The Heart of Whiteness: Normal Sexuality and Race in America, 1880–1940 (Duke University Press, 2007).  Josh Howard, The Lavender Scare, (Alexander Street Films).

They explore the feedback and misconceptions surrounding introverts' contributions to disciple making and highlight the significant and complementary gifts present in both personality types. The discussion also includes insights on global personality studies and how these findings can enhance the effectiveness of ministry strategies. By reflecting on biblical examples and modern-day stories, they emphasize the importance of relational generosity and encourage every listener, regardless of their personality, to recognize their value in God's mission.

They break down how both extroverts and introverts bring unique strengths to the mission. Breaking Stereotypes Extroverts are often seen as natural disciple makers because they thrive in social settings, while introverts may feel they don't fit the mold. But Josh and Jason challenge this idea, showing that disciple making isn't just about reaching many—it's about going deep. Strengths of Both Personality Types Josh, an extrovert, shares how easily he connects with people but admits he struggles to build deep relationships. Introverts, on the other hand, tend to invest deeply in a few people—something just as crucial for disciple making. Jason highlights how introverts' strength in prayer and studying the Word plays an essential role, balancing the energy extroverts bring to outreach. Biblical & Real-Life Examples Looking at Jesus' ministry, they note how He focused on a small group of disciples, proving that deep, intentional relationships drive lasting impact. They also share the story of Curtis Sargent, a highly introverted leader who has influenced millions, showing that introverts can be just as effective in ministry. The Power of Partnership Instead of working solo, Josh and Jason encourage a team approach, where extroverts and introverts complement each other—whether it's an extrovert helping an introvert meet new people or an introvert modeling spiritual depth. Final Encouragement Their message? No matter your personality, you have a role in disciple making. God designed you uniquely, and your strengths—whether in connecting widely or investing deeply—are essential to His mission.

They kick things off with some lighthearted banter before diving into a deeper discussion about Jesus' pattern for disciple-making. Reflecting on a previous episode, Josh and Jason talk about how Jesus balanced solitude with the Father, reached out to the lost, and deeply invested in a few key followers. Josh emphasizes how Jesus often stepped away from the crowds to focus on His disciples, illustrating the power of investing deeply in a few rather than spreading oneself too thin. Jason highlights how meaningful impact comes from this relational approach to disciple-making, which Jesus demonstrated by pouring into a select few instead of trying to reach everyone. The conversation then turns to the practical side of disciple-making. Josh shares how everyday activities, like driving alone, could be opportunities to invest in others. He challenges listeners to live a lifestyle where discipleship happens naturally, just as Jesus made time for His disciples wherever He went. Next, they discuss the cross—where Jesus' footsteps ultimately lead. Josh talks about the deep sacrifice and surrender discipleship requires, including being willing to give everything, even one's life, for the mission. Jason brings in Dietrich Bonhoeffer's concept of "costly grace," critiquing the watered-down gospel often preached today that skips over the true cost of following Jesus. Josh and Jason stress that real discipleship involves surrendering to Jesus as Lord and not just seeking forgiveness. Josh shares a powerful illustration from Francis Chan, explaining that true discipleship means giving Jesus full control of your life, not just being along for the ride. They wrap up by encouraging listeners to reflect on their own lives and whether their actions align with Jesus' example. They challenge their audience to make intentional, meaningful discipleship a priority and to be ready for the sacrifices it requires. This episode is a powerful reminder that true discipleship means solitude with God, reaching out to the broken, investing in a few key relationships, and being willing to make big sacrifices. Josh and Jason urge listeners to commit to authentic discipleship, following Jesus' footsteps and reaching out to Discipleship.org for support and resources along the way.

Josh kicks things off by highlighting how easily time with God gets squeezed out by the busyness of life. He and Jason agree—just like any important relationship, deep intimacy with God takes consistency and commitment. They discuss Jesus' habit of retreating to quiet places for prayer, sharing personal experiences and lessons from spiritual mentors who've embraced this practice. But they don't shy away from the challenges—distractions, packed schedules, and the struggle to prioritize God over daily demands. Their advice? Treat time with God like a non-negotiable appointment. The conversation then shifts to discipleship beyond the church walls. Josh and Jason emphasize that following Jesus means stepping into the messy, broken places of the world. Jesus didn't just preach from a distance—He was present among sinners, offering grace and love. They challenge listeners to rethink their daily interactions, shifting from routine tasks to living missionally, where every moment becomes an opportunity to serve. They also reflect on the tendency in professional ministry to become isolated from non-believers. True discipleship, they argue, requires breaking out of that bubble and making mission a natural, everyday rhythm. It's not about grand gestures but small, intentional acts that reflect Jesus' heart. As they wrap up, Josh and Jason tie everything together: the deeper your connection with God, the more naturally mission flows from your life. They encourage listeners to protect their quiet time with God while stepping boldly into the world's brokenness. Their message is clear—discipleship isn't just personal growth; it's about bringing God's love into everyday life. Tune in for a conversation that's both challenging and inspiring, and get ready to rethink what discipleship looks like in your daily walk.

The episode opens with a lighthearted exchange about Josh's sporty appearance, setting an engaging tone before diving into the central message. Drawing from the moment when an angel of the Lord visits Manoah's wife to prophesy Samson's birth, Josh reflects on Manoah's desire to understand the mission and the lifestyle required for his son. This sparks a larger conversation about how fulfilling our God-given mission demands a life aligned with that calling. Josh and Jason critique the tendency, especially among church leaders, to prioritize mission over personal integrity. Jason highlights Nancy Pearcey's concept of the "sacred-secular split," challenging Christians to integrate their faith into every aspect of life—whether as a teacher, mechanic, or any other profession. They stress that life and mission are inseparable, and embodying the character of Jesus is essential. Using metaphors from sports, Josh references the discipline of athletes like Michael Phelps and Kobe Bryant, emphasizing how their rigorous training for temporal success mirrors the spiritual dedication needed for a life on mission. Spiritual growth, they argue, requires the same level of commitment through practices like prayer, scripture reading, and fasting. Josh shares personal experiences, such as the transformative impact of reading the Gospel of Matthew in one sitting during Bible college, while Jason recounts a story of someone who read a gospel a day for 40 days, resulting in profound spiritual growth. They stress that scripture is foundational for sustaining both mission and spiritual integrity. The hosts discuss how neglecting personal discipline can lead to burnout and moral failure, using Samson's life as a cautionary tale. On the flip side, they highlight how spiritual practices anchor a mission-driven life, leading to lasting impact. Josh also reflects on church history, pointing to figures whose disciplined lives fueled revival and spiritual transformation. The tone becomes reflective as Josh and Jason admit their own struggles with maintaining a lifestyle worthy of their calling. They share a heartfelt desire for greater intimacy with God and encourage listeners to examine their own lives, make sacrifices, and prioritize spiritual disciplines. The episode concludes with Jason leading a prayer, asking for God's help to align lives with His mission, cultivate deep love for Him, and bear spiritual fruit. Josh wraps up by inviting listeners to explore resources on discipleship.org and join the Disciple Makers community to pursue lives dedicated to making disciples. This episode offers a powerful reminder of the cost of discipleship, urging Christians to embrace a lifestyle of integrity, discipline, and dedication to fulfill their God-given mission.

Josh looks back on growing up in Winston Salem, being a local kid who went to Wake Forest, and winning ACC POY his senior season. He also talks about his time on the Mavericks, being a huge part of Dallas's 2006 Finals run, and what it was like to watch from afar as the Mavs won it all in 2011. And be sure to stay tuned for Josh's thoughts on Q's defense. J Howard was one of those dogs in the early 2000s.
