TJF 140: Why Global Mission Matters for Me

TJF 143: Goodbye

Well, friends, this is it—the final episode of The Jesus Follower. Andrew and Daniel sit down one last time to reflect on the journey, share some laughs, and talk about what’s next. As Andrew steps away from Rolling Hills Baptist Church, this podcast is coming to an end, but the mission of following Jesus keeps going. We’re so grateful for every listen, every conversation, and every moment we’ve shared. Thank you for being part of this ride—let’s keep running the race together.

TJF 142: Josh Kautz on Calling and Student Ministry

In this special episode ofThe Jesus Follower, our Family Ministries Pastor, Josh Kautz, joins us in place of our usual cohost, Daniel. We dive into Josh’s story—how God called him into ministry, his passion for working with youth, and the challenges and joys of discipling the next generation. Whether you're in ministry yourself or just looking for encouragement in your walk with Christ, this conversation will inspire you to trust God’s calling in your own life.

TJF 141: Kingdom Over Consumerism

In a world that constantly tells us we need more—more stuff, more success, more security—how do we, as followers of Jesus, resist the pull of consumerism? In this episode of The Jesus Follower, we explore what Scripture says about our relationship with money, possessions, and the never-ending pursuit of "more." Is it wrong to enjoy good things? How do we balance stewardship with generosity? And what does it truly mean to seek first the Kingdom of God in a culture obsessed with consumption? Let’s talk about how we can live with contentment, purpose, and faith in a world that always wants us to buy in.

TJF 140: Why Global Mission Matters for Me

Why do we do missions? From Fairfield to the farthest corners of the globe, the Great Commission calls us to make disciples everywhere. In this episode of The Jesus Follower, we dive into the heart of missions—what it means to live on mission for Jesus, both locally and globally. As February marks our mission emphasis month at Rolling Hills Baptist Church, we'll explore practical ways to get involved, share inspiring stories, and unpack why this work matters for the gospel and for eternity. Join us as we focus on living sent, wherever God has placed us. Andrew: andrew@forfairfield.com Daniel: daniel@forfairfield.com

TJF 139: "Sacred Cows" in The Church

What are the “sacred cows” in your church—the traditions, practices, or preferences that seem untouchable? In this episode of The Jesus Follower, we dive into the cultural and spiritual habits that sometimes take priority over our mission to love God and love people. Are these sacred cows helping or hindering the church’s ability to grow and reach the world for Christ? Join us as we explore how to honor God’s timeless truths while letting go of things that no longer serve His purposes. It’s time to ask: are we following Jesus, or just tradition?
