    How to Stay Consistent with Jesus (And Completely Surrender to Him)

    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.

    How to Hear God's Voice

    Do you struggle to hear God's voice? In this episode we take a deep dive into the nature of listening to the voice of God, and the importance of discernment in our faith journey. I share methods to improve tuning into God's voice by providing three principles: removing distractions in our lives, giving God our undivided attention, and staying in constant communication with Him. I also discusses what might happen when we don't offer God our full attention. The podcast wraps up with emphasizing how simple yet important these principles are. We encourages everyone to maintain discipline in these principles to begin to clearly start hearing God's voice in your life. This episode was recorded awhile ago but felt it was still so applicable. I hope this bless you all! Join The Disciples Corner Are you a Christian man looking to grow deeper in your relationship with God?
