E03 - Prayers for the Battlefield

Weird Encouragement

In today's episode, we present a message titled "Weird Encouragement," recorded on May 25, 2025, in Indianapolis, Indiana. This message challenges Christian disciples to embrace lifelong learning—not just in knowledge, but in every aspect of their walk with God. True growth happens in three key areas: how we think about God, the passions that stir and motivate us, and the actions that define how we live. Learning doesn’t stop with a single revelation; it's a continuous process that transforms our understanding, deepens our affections, and refines our obedience. Join us as we explore how these elements shape your discipleship journey and how your growth as a disciple can be as natural and organic as your next breath.

E03 - Prayers for the Battlefield

Welcome to "The Way to Discipleship," the podcast designed to encourage and equip Christians as they follow Christ. In today's episode, we feature a sermon titled "Prayers for the Battlefield," delivered on March 30, 2025, in Indianapolis, Indiana. Drawing inspiration from Ephesians 6:18-24, this message focuses on the sobering reality that every believer lives on a spiritual battlefield. In this journey of discipleship, prayer is not optional—it's essential. As Paul reminds us in his letter to the Ephesians, prayer is our lifeline, a vital weapon for standing strong in the face of spiritual challenges.   Join us as we unpack the profound truths of scripture and discover how prayer can fortify our faith and transform our discipleship journey. This is a message that speaks to the heart of spiritual warfare as we declare the Gospel of the Kingdom of God.

E02 - A Passion for Discipleship

A healthy disciple of Christ, and a healthy discipleship ministry, must focus on all three of these social capacities. Our thinking, our passions, and our behaviors. What and how we think, feel, and do. Our head, heart, and hands. To use a football analogy, we must know the playbook, we must practice the drills, and we must develop a passion to win. In this message, presented at First Baptist Church in New Castle, IN on December 29, 2024, I want to help us develop our passion for the Kingdom of God. I want to help us develop a passion for Discipleship. My goal today is to help you see the passion behind Christ’s command that we disciple every new believer.
