Biblical discipleship God never meant for it to be diluted or sugar-coated. No, he is very clear on what this life is, what it will take, what we must do if we want it, there is no confusion regarding the life he calls his followers to, the one who willingly accepts the charge of being his disciple. I believe as I have seen and heard it time and again in the many churches I have attended over the years biblical discipleship was in fact watered down and sweetened- as Jesus’ bar and standards were not talked about, what his biblical truth and the type of life with him calls us to live, this was not talked about, they did not focus on Christ in regard to how we are to be, that we are meant to be transforming to be more like him, no they focused more on what God is going to do for us instead- instead of how we are supposed to be living in discipleship for this way of life in many of those churches was not mentioned, the type of faith a life with Christ will take was not mentioned, they focused on what their idea of following him is, not from Christs biblical perspective but basically what I call having been neatly packaged up with a pretty bow and allowing those who are listening to their sermons to believe they are good, that this life doesn’t call for more than basically to pray and have God help us in our life. But the truth is, the bible lacks zero clarity in what this really is, and it is one of those things we, you most likely were not told. I as I am sharing biblical discipleship with you and are speaking about it, I will not be watering it down, I will not be sugar-coating it, I will not be diluting it in any way. I am going to give it to you straight, exactly the way Jesus meant for us to understand and live it, and it is non-negotiable for him, his words about biblical discipleship are non-negotiable. For this means we don’t get to say well I don’t really like that, I don’t really want to do that, so I am just going to do this or only follow the scripture I do like. That my sister- is not biblical discipleship- it is either you are willing to live the life he calls us to, or you are not.

I would like to apologize as I am getting this out incredibly late to you for I made an important announcement last week Wednesday June 17, 2026 in the private Facebook Community group Lifestyle of Daily Joy Community regarding what is going on with my podcast and that I may be late in getting this to you explaining my computer, the one I use for podcasting ended up needing repair for it wouldn’t do what I needed it to do as I had been having technical trouble with it lately as you may have heard me mention in recent episodes this happening and it got to a point I could not get on to the podcasting site or much of anything else and because of this, I was not able to get this episode recorded or published on time however, I have my computer back and we are going to see how it goes, hopefully well, and as I am working to get back on track, I would like to thank you for your patience with me.
With all this having taken place, I would like to let you know if something like this happens again, God willing it won’t… but if it does, the only way I will be able to let you know that I am not able to get an episode to you is either in the Facebook community group or by emailing you to provide you updated information regarding what is happening with Lifestyle of Daily Joy so if you would like to receive information about it then you can find it in the group or send me an email and I can respond back to you with the goings on and I will give you my email at the end and it is in the show notes as well.
