Discipleship From the Heart | Evangelist Ryan Keel

In this powerful message, Evangelist Ryan Keel challenges believers to move beyond simply knowing the message of the gospel and begin applying it to their hearts and daily lives. Preaching from First Corinthians chapter 9, he emphasizes the Apostle Paul’s warning about becoming “a castaway”—someone who proclaims the truth but fails to allow God to transform what is inside.This sermon calls the church to true discipleship—where faith in Jesus Christ and His finished work on the cross produces real change in our hearts, relationships, attitudes, and actions. Evangelist Keel reminds us that Christianity is not about repeating doctrine, but about allowing the power of the cross to shape who we are from the inside out.Topics covered in this message include:The importance of applying the message of the cross to our personal livesGuarding the heart so we remain usable in God’s kingdomLearning to forgive, love others, and overcome offenses through ChristGrowing in spiritual maturity and unity within the churchBringing our weaknesses, struggles, and sins to God for transformationWith personal testimonies, biblical teaching, and heartfelt exhortation, this message encourages believers to pursue authentic discipleship and rely on the power of Christ to change them from within.Scripture References:First Corinthians 9:19–27Romans 5:1–2Matthew 5–7Hebrews 13:5–6If this message blessed you, be sure to like, share, and subscribe to support the spread of the gospel.
