In this episode of The Disciples Journal, we explore the often-misunderstood concept of Lordship—where Jesus moves from being merely our Savior to becoming the sovereign ruler of every aspect of our lives.Through profound insights from Erica Diggs, we uncover why many believers remain stagnant despite years of church attendance, and how the fundamental issue often traces back to a misunderstanding of true surrender. This discussion will teach you the practical journey to deepening intimacy with Christ, and understand the transformative power of making Jesus not just Savior, but Lord. Whether you're feeling stuck in your faith or seeking to deepen your relationship with Christ, this conversation provides the biblical framework and practical steps for moving from religious activity to genuine relationship with Jesus.

Have you ever found yourself striving for perfection, thinking that your efforts will make you worthy of God’s love? In this episode of The Disciples Journal, we explore the powerful truth of justification—that we are saved by grace through faith, not by works. No amount of striving or perfection will earn us God’s approval because it has already been given through Jesus. We’ll break down what it means to be justified in Christ, understanding that our relationship with God is based on His love and grace, not our performance. You don’t have to work for God’s love, but rather live from it. Join me as we unpack how God declares us righteous through faith, freeing us from the impossible burden of perfection.

Imagine your daily comforts, pleasures, or even time on social media becoming your offering to God? Quite a provoking thought, isn't it? We promise, this episode is going to challenge and provoke you to rethink what sacrifice truly means. It's more than just the grand gestures, the quality of your offerings to God is mirrored by the quality of your relationship with Him. We explore the teachings of Malachi 1:6-11, highlighting that every season of our life presents unique offerings that we need to surrender or 'put on the altar'.Our discussion doesn't stop at just identifying sacrifices. We all are familiar with the easy-to-give offerings, the ones that don't cost us much. But what about the ones that demand our self-control? This episode encourages you to examine your life and identify those hidden areas where gluttony sneaks in, indicating a lack of self-control, and turns your offerings into leftovers rather than the best. Moreover, we delve deep into how our attitude towards giving to others sharply contrasts with our attitude towards giving to God. So, get ready for a riveting conversation that might just revolutionize your perspective on what it truly means to sacrifice for God.Today's Sponsor:ELIC - http://elic.org/justdifferentListen to our Playlist:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1f5gqYjB4Di8QL8RHvzCUs?si=90d88120e4ad4aafApple: https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/puttin-you-on/pl.u-b3b8VPGSKqymRqa

Have you ever stopped to think about what it truly means to seek the kingdom first? In a world that cries out for our attention at every turn, we dive headfirst into exploring the meaning of genuine kingdom-seeking. In drawing from the apostles' example, we uncover how they weren't interested in the crowd, they were focused on the kingdom - and in turn, the crowd found them. This deep and thought-provoking discussion is an invitation for us all to be more intentional and proactive about sharing our faith, no matter where we are or who we're with.Stepping beyond the confines of Sundays, we challenge the notion that Christianity is a once-a-week affair. Every Christian is in full-time ministry, and the danger of becoming passive in our relationship with Jesus is real. We reflect on how our modern church culture can inadvertently turn the gospel into a consumable product rather than an active lifestyle. The apostles didn't just share the gospel; they lived it - and we are called to do the same. This conversation is a gentle but firm call to action, reminding us that evangelism and discipleship should be a daily commitment, not just a Sunday routine.Finally, we navigate the delicate balance of seeking God's face and hand. Both are integral to our spiritual journey, but the priority has to be seeking His face. We dig into scriptures like 1 Timothy 6:6 and 1 Corinthians 12:31 to better understand this balance. We also acknowledge the pressure to follow God's will and how it can distort our full experience of His grace and love. In discussing this delicate balance, we hope to encourage a shift in perspective - viewing our relationship with Jesus as a desire, not an obligation. So, join us as we journey together in discovering more about our faith and growing closer to Jesus.Today's Sponsor:ELIC - http://elic.org/justdifferentListen to our Playlist:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1f5gqYjB4Di8QL8RHvzCUs?si=90d88120e4ad4aafApple: https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/puttin-you-on/pl.u-b3b8VPGSKqymRqa

In our latest conversation, we bravely tackle an issue that's all too prevalent - gossip, particularly in Christian media.

Step into this enlightening journey with us as we highlight how negativity can often masquerade as 'constructive criticism' in our personal lives and media platforms. We challenge you to reflect on how different our lives would be if we directed our energies towards love and building, rather than tearing down.Are you hearing God's voice above the clamor? We delve into the profound concept of God speaking in a small, still voice as mentioned in 1 Kings 19:11-13. This episode seeks to equip you with tools to turn down the volume of the world's noise and tune into the Divine whisper. We also direct our focus towards the essence of intercession, understanding that gossip is merely a perversion of it. We explore the challenging yet rewarding journey of redirecting our time and energy towards praying for others rather than speaking about them.In a world rife with gossip, how do you stay authentic, humble, and true to yourself? We provide insights on aligning your energy towards intercession and the role of a 'quiet life' in gospel ministry. Drawing inspiration from Luke 5:1-3, we unpack the power of separating oneself from the world's hustle, not as an act of exclusion but a dedicated effort to spread the gospel.

We also dissect the responsibilities that come with fame, particularly for those using their platforms to promote God's word. Remember John the Baptist? His life teachings offer stellar insights about leading by example and pointing people back to God. But the pitfalls of fame are many and we don't shy away from discussing them - from the intoxicating admiration that fuels pride to the mental health implications of always being under scrutiny. We also draw from Romans 8:5 to emphasize the significance of the mind's diet in shaping our actions.As we wrap up, we tackle the thorny issue of performance pressure that comes with fame, especially in this era of social media. Incorporating lessons from how Jesus retreated when his popularity surged, we stress on the need for caution and intentionality when using these platforms. We also revisit the command of Sabbath and its relevance in today's times. Lastly, we examine the necessity of a quiet life, away from the prying eyes of the public, rooting our discussions in the understanding that misplaced worship can be detrimental.
