There’s no reason to miss out on this HUGE chance to bring redemption to your neighborhood. In this episode, Caesar…

The “cancel culture” can hit anyone at any time–even you–if you’ve ever said or done something that a very vocal group of people disagree with. Unfortunately, the Church is not immune to this type of canceling of our own. In this episode of the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we’ll take a look at how God deals…

Many pastors are working hard to lead their families and flocks to engage discipleship in all of life, but their biggest roadblocks to exponential growth is their own church elders! Oftentimes, these “elders” do not make disciples and have never led another person to faith in Jesus. How could this be so common?! This week…

But what about those churches where people are already convinced and just need direction? This week on the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we lay out the very first steps to becoming a missional church. These…

If the Church keeps doing what it has been for decades in connection to disciple-making, we will continue to see a decline in Christianity in our time. There is no better time than today to start changing our minds, changing the church, and changing the world! This week on the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we’ll give…

There is no such thing as a typical week in the rhythms of a missional community. Healthy communities follow pretty surprisingly simple patterns.
