Drawing from studies by Bobby Harrington and insights from Ephesians 4, they emphasize the importance of lowering the bar for entry into ministry while increasing support and accountability. The discussion highlights the need to break down the professional laity divide, allowing everyone to participate fully in God's work. Personal anecdotes illustrate how ordinary individuals, regardless of their backgrounds or roles, can be used powerfully by God. The episode closes with a call to action for both church leaders and individual believers to embrace their roles in the Kingdom and equip others to do the same.   Get Discipleship.org's premium Podcast Feed: https://disciplemakerspodcast.supercast.com/    Key Takeaways    00:00 Welcome Back to The Disciple Maker's Podcast 00:36 Introduction to Disciple Making Principles 01:12 Principle #7: Equipping and Releasing the Priesthood 01:51 The Shift from Old Covenant to New 02:46 Breaking Down Professional Ministry 04:35 Practical Steps for Church Leaders 06:12 Encouraging and Empowering Believers 06:37 Personal Testimonies and Experiences 11:32 The Importance of Speaking Life into Others 12:20 Early Preaching Experiences 13:58 The Rat Trap Illustration 14:25 Early Preaching Experiences 14:57 Mentorship and Opportunities 15:49 Equipping and Releasing the Priesthood 18:11 Lowering the Bar of Entry 18:21 Personal Responsibility in Ministry 19:31 Empowering Individuals for Ministry 24:33 The Power of God in Everyone 26:41 Encouraging Initiative in Ministry 29:34 Conclusion and Resources   Check out our Blogs: https://discipleship.org/blog/  See Below for a longer description: The episode kicks off with Josh and Jason having some fun, channeling their inner newscasters as they introduce The Disciple Maker's Podcast. Right away, they hit on the heart of the conversation: the Church isn't just for professionals — every believer is called and equipped to take part in the mission. This episode dives into one of the ten core disciple-making principles: activating the priesthood of all believers, a concept drawn from Bobby Harrington and Discipleship.org. Josh and Jason unpack how the Church often sidelines most people, treating ministry like a spectator sport — a few “professionals” on the court, while the rest just watch from the stands. But Jesus calls everyone to get in the game, and the Holy Spirit gives us all what we need to play. They explore the shift from the Old Covenant, where only priests (Levites) had access to God, to the New Covenant — where all believers are invited to serve and represent Him directly. It's a powerful reminder that ministry isn't reserved for a select few. Josh also highlights the common “professional vs. laity” gap in churches and argues for lowering the barriers so anyone can step into ministry, with the right support and accountability along the way. He shares his own story — starting as a nervous, underprepared teenager giving his first sermon with a makeshift object lesson — and how mentors spotted potential and gave him room to grow. That experience shaped his path and reinforced the power of empowering others before they feel “ready.” Josh and Jason also push church leaders to create meaningful opportunities beyond simple Sunday roles like handing out bulletins. The goal? Equip people to share the gospel and make disciples, not just fill a slot. One story really drives this home: Josh tells of a woman in his church who felt called to serve in nursing homes. When she asked if she needed permission, Josh simply told her to go for it — God had already called her. They wrap up by encouraging leaders to remove obstacles, invest in people, and hold them accountable as they step into ministry — because when the Church unleashes the priesthood of all believers, lives change. Josh closes with a reminder: the same Spirit that raised Jesus lives in every believer, so there's no need to wait for permission. He invites listeners to check out resources at Discipleship.org and teases the next episode, where the conversation will continue  

Tonight the Church gives us the Gospel of John, which gives us a unique account of the Last Supper. Jesus washes the feet of the disciples, and then tells them that they must do the same. Tonight we celebrate the Institution of the Priesthood and two of the Sacraments that only the priest can celebrate: Reconciliation and the Eucharist.

In the midst of all the Body and the Priesthood are going through right now, the Lord wants to ask His people a question. One that will help the church avoid the traps of the enemy, and position us to be part of God's solution. What is this powerful question? Watch now to find out...--------------------------------------------------------------------Thank you for listening Robert Hotchkin on Heroes Arise!If this podcast blessed you, be sure to like, subscribe, and turn on notifications so you never miss new content that will empower you to walk in victory and release Heaven on Earth.

(3:14) Bible Study: Exodus 12:1-8, 11-14 The Catholic religion is a fulfillment of the religion of Israel. Jesus celebrated the Passover on the First Day of Unleavened Bread. What matters is what Jesus did during these days. The physical presence of Our Lord is physical. This physicality is passed on through Apostolic Succession. The priesthood is a chain of unworthy people touched by Christ. 1 Corinthians 11:23-26 We have to understand that Mass is older than the Scriptures. They were celebrating Mass 20 years before any of the scriptures were Written down. Mass is the mother of the Scriptures. “This idea of remembrance is a very Jewish idea.” John 13:1-15 (23:02) Break 1 (27:38) Letters: (28:22) - – I just want to remind you that we need to avoid theological road rage. When we meet someone who is a devout Catholic and is part one political party, we should ask, “why” instead of “how could you”. Listen, love God, and love your neighbor. (30:02) – I have been reading about different Christian views on the atonement. What does the Church teach on this? Send Fr. Simon a letter at simon@relevantradio.com (35:14) Break 2 Word of the Day: (36:44) “Passion" Phones: (37:56) Marie - I know of many Churches that will be having a Seder Meal. Should Catholics participate in this? (40:22) Claudia - Thank you Fr. Simon for being a priest! I pray for vocations to the priesthood every day. (41:43) Fran - My nephew was baptized, 'In the name of the Father, his son our Lord Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit.' Is this valid? (45:13) Patrick - I feel the sign of peace is distracting at Mass. What do you think?

Called & Covered: The Role of a High Priest – Hebrews 5 Part 1In this episode, Jamie and Jane dive into Hebrews 5:1–8 and explore what it truly means that Jesus is our High Priest. What was the role of a high priest, and how does Christ fulfill it perfectly for us? From the call of God to the covering of grace, this conversation unpacks the beauty of God's design for intimacy, access, and representation through Jesus.

Crystal Rivers | Kingdom Mysteries | Apr 16, 2025 Your spiritual journey begins with an invitation to feast on God's Word. This isn't merely about reading Scripture—it's about consuming it until it transforms your very being. The process starts with your initial salvation experience, represented by Passover. Here, you first taste the bread and wine—symbols of Christ's sacrifice. This is only the beginning. As you continue to immerse yourself in God's Word, you'll experience Pentecost—where the eyes of your understanding are opened. The seven spirits of God illuminate your heart, making it receptive to deeper revelation. When your heart becomes full of God's Word through persistent meditation and fellowship, something extraordinary happens. Like a trumpet, your life begins to declare what has filled your heart. This isn't merely external confession but an internal oath of allegiance to Christ that flows from genuine conviction. The journey culminates in Atonement and Tabernacles, where the glory of God wraps around you, transforming your spiritual DNA. This isn't metaphorical—it's a real spiritual-genetic transformation where you become bone of His bone, flesh of His flesh. Your very nature is changed to reflect Christ's. Remember: you are what you eat spiritually. When you feast exclusively on God's Word, silencing competing voices and distractions, you'll hear Him clearly. Many struggle in their spiritual lives simply because they haven't consumed enough of God's Word to transform their inner landscape. The world offers many tables to dine at, but only one leads to true transformation. God has set a feast before you. Your response determines your destiny. Will you come and eat?

Preparing His Bride | Apr 12, 2025 You are called to more than just religious function—you are called to a priesthood that represents a complete lifestyle of consecration, righteousness, and love. This priesthood requires personal, daily engagement with the Holy Spirit, not just during designated spiritual activities. Your journey in faith begins with hearing God's Word, which leads to intimacy with Him and transformation by His Spirit. Without faith, it's impossible to please God—and faith comes through hearing His Word. As you progress in this journey, you'll experience spiritual ascension, moving from the outer courts toward the Holy of Holies, where your heart rises in love, truth, and humility. Unlike the Aaronic priesthood of old, which was external and temporary, you are part of the Melchizedek priesthood—internal, eternal, and based on the power of an endless life. God's original design was always to dwell within you, and this priesthood enables that divine indwelling. This blueprint was established before the fall of man, when God had unhindered fellowship with humanity because His image, life, and nature were within them. This priesthood isn't something you achieve alone. You're in a blood covenant relationship with God through Jesus Christ, which binds you to Him and to your fellow believers. This covenant is serious—sealed by Christ's blood—and includes responsibilities. Just as a priest must give life, you cannot merely collect spiritual insights without sharing them. Rivers of living water are meant to flow from you, not stagnate within. Remember that Jesus demonstrated what humanity is meant to become. Even creation obeys those who grow into this priesthood, not because of special powers, but because of spiritual maturity. The Melchizedek priesthood unites heaven and earth, discourages division among believers, and encourages unity of faith. Your life either contributes to or distracts from this divine oneness. Focus on what unites rather than what separates. Your priesthood means executing the Father's will, being a conduit of His presence and purposes. The true sonship means surrender—letting God's will shape you rather than projecting your own agenda. This covenant community is how the world will know Christ. When you refuse to be your brother's keeper, you're breaking covenant. Like soldiers who never leave their wounded behind, you are called to care for your covenant family. This is not optional—it's the heart of your priesthood. Learn more : http://caveadullam.org/ Subscribe to our Podcast on iTunes : https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...

Bishop Robert Barron recently visited The Saint Paul Seminary to share biblical perspectives on the Catholic priesthood. "The central theme of Scripture is right praise," he told the seminary community, and priests "knit together the universe" by leading this right praise.

Deacon Josh Miller comes from a military family. He'd always wanted to serve in the Army like his father. But when he did, he realized God was calling him to something more.

The law given to the Israelites in the Old Testament was a good thing, in its time – but when Jesus came, He instituted a systemic change to the priesthood that we'd be wise to grab hold of. We continue our study in Hebrews as Pastor Kit looks at Hebrews 7:11-28.

In this episode of the In Her Image podcast, host Jessica Woodbury and guest Maxine Hanks explore the historical and theological roles of women in the LDS faith, emphasizing their spiritual authority and contributions to the church's origins. They discuss the significance of the Relief Society, Emma Smith and the concept of the Elect Lady, and the restoration of female authority within the church. Maxine's research and insights beg the question, has the Relief Society fully been restored? Is the largest women's organization in the world fulfilling its intended purpose? Are there pieces from our very inception as a society that hold clues, or shall we say, keys, to our potential and partnership with the male priesthood order of the church that could cause seismic shifts? This groundbreaking conversation highlights the importance of deep listening, safe spaces, and the ongoing journey towards equality and recognition of women's power and equality in spirituality and leadership.

Pastor Michael Kisaka challenges believers to actively transform their time in worship into an offering that enriches both their lives and the body of Christ.

God gave specific instructions for the priesthood that served in the tabernacle.  Everything about the priesthood pointed to Christ, even the details of their garments.  The high priest's shoulder pieces and breastplate, which bore stones that represented the tribes, represented Christ carrying the weight of the people on His shoulders and carrying the people in His heart.

In 1 Peter 2:9 we read that the church is "a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession." But what does this mean, in practice? For some, it means all believers are on the same playing field, able to preach, lead, and administer sacraments. For others, it means something less radical. Where does the Reformed tradition stand? And how does it compare, for example, to an Anabaptist or Pentecostal view? What about the Roman Catholic view? These are questions we dig into on this week's episode.   The article mentioned from Roger E. Olson can be found here: https://www.patheos.com/blogs/rogereolson/2012/09/mostly-for-baptists-others-welcome-to-listen-in-priesthood-of-believers/ Visit www.almondvalley.org for information about Almond Valley Christian Reformed Church in Ripon, CA.

  Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - Mark 9:41-50 - Jesus said to His disciples: ""Anyone who gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ, amen, I say to you, will surely not lose his reward. ""Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were put around his neck and he were thrown into the sea. If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed than with two hands to go into Gehenna, into the unquenchable fire. And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life crippled than with two feet to be thrown into Gehenna. And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. Better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into Gehenna, where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched. ""Everyone will be salted with fire. Salt is good, but if salt becomes insipid, with what will you restore its flavor? Keep salt in yourselves and you will have peace with one another.""

Fr. Mike underscores the importance of obeying God as he reads from Numbers 4 and Deuteronomy 4. We also read Psalm 88 and learn how it foreshadows the darkness Christ endured on the cross. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear. Please note: The Bible contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.

Fr. Mike points out how blessing something sets it apart for the purposes of God, and it is no longer meant for ordinary uses. So when we are filled with the spirit of God, our daily task becomes extraordinary, because it is consecrated to God. Today's readings are Exodus 30-31, Leviticus 22, and Psalm 115. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear. Please note: The Bible contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.

As we read Exodus 29, Leviticus 21, and Psalm 119:121-176, Fr. Mike points out how God calls broken and imperfect men to his holy priesthood, and asks each of us to say a special prayer for priests today.
