Drawing from his personal experiences with Youth With A Mission (YWAM) and stories of individuals like John, a cardiologist, and Mandisa, a former American Idol contestant, Dave illustrates how integrating discipleship into vocations can transform lives and communities. He challenges pastors and church leaders to support their congregants in their professional fields, fostering spiritual growth and societal impact. Practical steps and considerations for fostering a disciple-making culture within churches are also explored.

Buehring starts by introducing himself and thanking the participants, mentioning his background with Youth with a Mission (YWAM) and being discipled by its founder, Lauren Cunningham. He emphasizes the connection between disciple making and societal impact, outlining his early realization that discipleship extends beyond personal spiritual growth to influencing different vocations such as media, government, and business. Buehring presents his belief that a significant part of the United States' current issues stems from ignoring Jesus's commission to make disciples, particularly in key sectors like media and government. He suggests that society's transformation occurs not through yelling or solely praying but through influencing these sectors with godly principles.   He shares several stories of individuals he's discipled, highlighting the changes in their personal and professional lives. For instance, he talks about John, a cardiologist who learned to balance his immense professional skill with relational sensitivity. Another story involves Darren, who worked in the White House and learned to integrate the fear of the Lord into his operations, avoiding manipulation. Similarly, Sarah, an emerging artist, learned the value of servanthood in her music career. Buehring contrasts two mentalities within churches: convening (building-centric, program-oriented) versus mobilizing (impacting the community, relationship-oriented). He urges churches to adopt a culture of equipping and releasing members to serve in their vocations. Additionally, he provides a model for understanding discipleship stages, ranging from foundational discipling for new believers to vocational and leadership discipling for those influencing their respective fields. A significant part of his message is about integrating vocational disciple-making into church culture. This includes practical steps such as initiating conversations with vocational leaders in the church, creating vocational teams, and using Sunday sermons to discuss vocational applications of discipleship. Buehring also addresses the importance of redefining the metrics of church health beyond 'nickels and noses' (attendance and giving). Instead, he suggests evaluating the presence of God, community, disciple-making, and outreach within the church. He concludes by emphasizing the necessity of recognizing and supporting the unique callings of individuals within the church. This includes commissioning them into their vocational roles and ensuring the church is making a tangible impact on its community. Through various anecdotes and practical advice, Buehring underscores the pivotal role of discipleship in transforming both individual lives and broader societal structures. He encourages church leaders to view their congregants' vocational callings as integral to their ministry, thus fostering a more holistic approach to disciple-making.   Follow us at Discipleship.org!

The speaker begins by urging listeners to reflect on transformative moments in their lives, where overcoming challenges led to significant personal growth. For instance, one participant shares their experience with the Regeneration 12-step program, highlighting how it sparked spiritual renewal and ongoing growth. The conversation explores how personal tragedies can also be catalysts for spiritual enlightenment. Another participant shares how the loss of their father prompted a reevaluation of priorities and deepened their faith, illustrating how profound personal loss can lead to transformative experiences. The core of discipleship is then emphasized, focusing on facilitating continual change in others. The speaker challenges the idea that discipleship is solely about biblical knowledge, stressing that true transformation comes from applying Jesus' teachings. Referencing the Sermon on the Mount, where Jesus stresses the importance of both hearing and doing His words, the speaker underscores the foundation for weathering life's challenges. Critiquing the traditional church emphasis on scriptural knowledge without practical application, the speaker shares an anecdote about a Presbyterian pastor dismayed by his congregation's lack of transformation despite their extensive knowledge. This highlights the gap between knowledge and spiritual growth. Character emerges as a crucial aspect of discipleship, with the speaker arguing that cultivating godly character—through practices like humility and mercy—is paramount. A personal story about Mandisa illustrates this, showing her proactive steps towards repentance and reconciliation as a model of spiritual principles in action. Discipleship, the speaker insists, is not about completing a curriculum but integrating God's teachings into daily life. Another anecdote involving Mandisa illustrates how acts of humility and repentance shape genuine character development. The episode concludes with a call to embrace a transformative journey rooted in revelation and obedience. Transformation begins with divine insight that goes beyond mere knowledge and requires obedient action. Noah's obedience during the ark's construction serves as an analogy, highlighting the transformative power of steadfast obedience despite uncertainty. Ultimately, this episode underscores Christian discipleship as an ongoing journey of personal and spiritual growth. It stresses the importance of character development, practical application of biblical teachings, and nurturing mature, Christ-like relationships. The takeaway is clear: true discipleship involves living out Jesus' teachings daily, embodying authentic transformation grounded in godly character.   Follow us at Discipleship.org for more great content!

Dave Buehring begins by sharing his journey from growing up Lutheran in Minnesota, where he received little teaching about the Holy Spirit, to joining Youth with a Mission (YWAM) and learning from its founder, Lauren Cunningham. This experience gave him a fresh understanding of the Holy Spirit as the third person of the Trinity. Emphasizing the Holy Spirit's central role in his 40 years of disciple-making, Dave describes the Spirit as a partner and transformer in spiritual growth. He highlights the importance of helping people recognize the Holy Spirit's presence and follow His lead, especially when feeling stuck. The speaker shares a story about guiding Mandisa, a disciple for 22 years, in learning to wait on the Lord and follow the Holy Spirit's guidance. He discusses the broader impact of discipleship, which extends beyond church walls to vocations like government, arts, business, media, and education, integrating faith into professional lives to make a societal impact. Throughout today's episode, practical aspects of discipling others by paying attention to the Holy Spirit's work are emphasized. Dave recounts two biblical stories: Philip and the Ethiopian Eunuch (Acts 8:26-40): An angel instructs Philip to go to a desert road where he meets an Ethiopian official reading Isaiah. Prompted by the Holy Spirit, Philip explains the Scriptures and baptizes the eunuch, highlighting the importance of being sensitive to the Spirit's guidance. Peter and Cornelius (Acts 10): Peter receives a vision while praying, leading him to visit Cornelius, a Gentile centurion. Despite initial hesitation, Peter obeys the Holy Spirit, shares the Gospel, and Cornelius and his household convert, underscoring the importance of prayerful listening and immediate obedience. The speaker draws three key observations from these stories: Listening on the Way vs. Listening While Praying: Philip's encounter shows the need to be attentive to the Holy Spirit during daily activities, while Peter's experience highlights the importance of waiting on the Lord in prayer. Immediate Obedience: Both Philip and Peter obey the Holy Spirit without hesitation, crucial for effective disciple-making. God's Knowledge of Our Gifts: The Holy Spirit knows each believer's gifts and positions them for Kingdom purposes. The episode also discusses grieving and quenching the Holy Spirit: Grieving the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 4:30): This occurs when the Holy Spirit says "no," but we proceed to say "yes," causing grief. It's often related to unloving conduct and relational sins. Quenching the Holy Spirit (1 Thessalonians 5:19-20): This happens when the Holy Spirit says "yes," but we say "no," stifling divine influence. It involves resisting promptings towards joy, prayer, thankfulness, and prophecy. Dave gives practical advice for discerning the Holy Spirit's voice in disciple-making including asking clarifying questions and listening attentively to the person being discipled. Communal discernment and confirmation from spiritual leaders are also emphasized. In conclusion, the episode calls for a balanced approach to disciple-making that integrates both the Word of God and the active leading of the Holy Spirit. The speaker encourages listeners to cultivate a life of continuous listening and immediate obedience, trusting that the Holy Spirit will lead both them and their disciples into deeper transformation and effective witness in their vocations and communities. Overall, this episode offers a rich and practical exploration of partnering with the Holy Spirit in making disciples who are knowledgeable in Scripture and sensitive to the Spirit's guidance in all areas of life.

We've spent this season talking about the Leadership Games and the need for discipleship in the various fields where people work.  We talked with believers in government, law and security; business; arts, entertainment & media, health, medicine & wholeness, and we're ending our series talking about the need to disciple people who work in ministry. That may sound strange because it seems like they should be the ones who have discipleship down! But many who work in the church and other para-church organizations will tell you it doesn't always happen there either.  There's a difference between teaching discipleship and practicing it. When available, episode notes are at Lionshare.org/podcast.
