    Come Follow Me | Luke 9:57-62 | 2 Minute Disciple Podcast Ep. 188

    Answer Jesus' call to radical discipleship in this transformative study of Luke 9:57-62. Jesus encounters three people who want to follow Him, but each has a "but first"—a condition, a delay, or a hesitation. This episode explores what it means to follow Jesus without conditions, without looking back, and without divided allegiance. Discover why Jesus calls for total commitment rather than partial obedience, and what it costs to truly put your hand to the plow. Learn how following Jesus means letting go of security, comfort, certainty, and the need to see the whole path ahead. Through contemplative meditation and honest reflection, identify your own "but first"—the thing you're holding onto as a condition for following Jesus—and find the courage to release it. This episode will challenge you to undivided allegiance and empower you to follow Jesus into the unknown with confidence. 📖Follow Along

    Unforgiving Is Not An Option | Matthew 18:21-35 | 2 Minute Disciple Podcast Ep. 187

    Discover the transformative power of forgiveness in this profound study of Matthew 18:21-35. When Peter asks how many times he should forgive, Jesus responds: "seventy times seven"—meaning unlimited forgiveness. Through the parable of the unforgiving servant, Jesus reveals a stunning truth: you cannot be right with God while holding unforgiveness in your heart. This episode explores how you've been forgiven of an impossible debt—every sin, every failure, every shortcoming—yet you may be refusing to extend that same mercy to others. Learn why unforgiveness is actually a rejection of the mercy that saved you, and how forgiveness is not a feeling but a choice. Through contemplative meditation and practical reflection, discover who you need to forgive, what debt you've been demanding they pay, and how to release them—and yourself—from the burden of unforgiveness. This episode will liberate you from the chains of bitterness and restore you to right relationship with God. 📖Follow Along

    Work It Out Together | Matthew 18:15-20 | 2 Minute Disciple Podcast Ep. 186

    In Episode 186, we explore Matthew 18:15-20 and Jesus' brilliant process for addressing sin and conflict in relationships. Our culture teaches us to avoid conflict at all costs—we ghost people, talk about them behind their backs, cut them off, or post passive-aggressive comments on social media. But Jesus calls us to something radically different: go to them directly and work it out. Through guided meditation, discover why avoidance doesn't heal relationships—it destroys them. When we refuse to address sin, it festers, grows, and spreads to others, creating distance where there could be reconciliation. Jesus gives us a three-step process designed with love at every stage. First, go privately with the goal of restoration, not embarrassment or judgment. If they listen and confess, you've won that person back. Second, if they don't listen, bring one or two witnesses to ensure clarity and fairness—not to gang up on them, but to protect everyone involved. Third, take it to the church community, recognizing that we're not meant to handle serious conflict alone. This episode explores the profound promise that bookends this teaching: "If two of you agree here on earth concerning anything you ask, my Father in heaven will do it for you. For where two or three gather together as my followers, I am there among them." Jesus is saying that when you come together for the work of reconciliation, He is present with you. Learn why confrontation requires courage and humility, and why it's ultimately an act of profound love. Discover practical steps for preparing your heart before a difficult conversation: check yourself for humility, clarify that your goal is restoration not victory, and choose your words carefully. Find the freedom to show up honestly and seek restoration, trusting that God is with you in the hard conversations. 📖Follow Along

    Avoid Sin At All Costs | Mark 9:42-50 | 2 Minute Disciple Podcast Ep. 185

    Confront the seriousness of sin in this challenging study of Mark 9:42-50. Jesus uses shocking language—cut off your hand, gouge out your eye—to communicate how catastrophic sin truly is. This episode explores why we minimize sin and its effects, and why Jesus calls us to radical seriousness about even the smallest transgressions. Discover how sin corrupts your soul, separates you from God, and spreads to those around you. Learn why taking sin seriously isn't about shame or fear, but about freedom and wholeness. Through contemplative meditation and honest reflection, identify where you've been tolerating sin in your life and find the courage to turn away from it. Explore what it means to be "salt"—a preserving, healing influence in a world that desperately needs it. This episode will transform how you see sin and empower you to live with radical honesty and freedom. 📖Follow Along

    Naming The GOAT Of The Kingdom | Matthew 18:1-4 | 2 Minute Disciple Podcast Ep. 184

    Discover what true greatness really means in this transformative study of Matthew 18:1-4. When the disciples ask Jesus who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven, He doesn't answer with a name—He calls a child forward. This episode explores how Jesus completely redefines greatness, measuring it not by power, achievement, or recognition, but by humility, awe, and childlike wonder. Learn why the world's definition of success is backwards and how to reclaim the openness, trust, and sense of wonder you may have lost. Through contemplative meditation and practical reflection, discover what it means to be childlike—not childish—and how approaching God and life with the awe of a child is the pathway to true greatness in God's kingdom. This episode will revolutionize how you measure success and what you pursue. 📖Follow Along

When tax collectors demand payment, Jesus sends Peter fishing—and tells him he'll find a coin in the first fish's mouth. This episode reveals a profound truth: God owns everything, yet He invites us to participate in His provision. Learn why giving isn't about God's need, but about our transformation and growth in trust. Explore how Jesus involves us in miracles, not because He lacks resources, but because He wants us to experience the joy and freedom that comes from trusting His provision and giving generously to others. Through contemplative meditation and practical reflection, discover where God is inviting you to give—not from obligation or guilt, but from a heart that truly believes He provides. This episode will revolutionize how you think about money, generosity, and your role in God's kingdom. 📖Follow Along
