EPISODE 1

Session 1: Repentant Life

Most of the time when we hear the word repentance, we are conditioned to think about the initial moment of repentance when we begin following Jesus. Growing Christians live a life of repentance. It’s not a milestone you reach or a destination that you accomplish and check off your list. Growing Christians are repentant Christians. In this session, Dean Inserra teaches that healthy disciples live a repentant life.

Session 2: Healthy Habits

In this session, Dean Inserra teaches about the importance of spiritual habits in the Christian life. Healthy habits, or spiritual disciplines, are the practices God has given us to grow our faith. Habits continue to shape and inform the way we spend our time and the choices we make. Growing faith is supported, at every stage, by healthy habits.

Session 3: Eternally Minded

In this session, Dean teaches what it means to be eternally minded. Being eternally minded means that our primary concern is Christ and His coming kingdom. While we shouldn’t remove ourselves from the world, we don’t want to resemble the world either. Rather, we remember our citizenship in heaven and see all of life on earth through that lens.

Session 4: Generous Living

One of the ways God evaluates our hearts is by what we do with our resources. Disciples who are growing in their faith should be people of increasing generosity. We cannot serve God and money. Generosity allows us to keep our hearts in check. In this session, Dean Inserra shows how the Christian life should be marked by generosity.

Session 5: Theologically Sound

Studying theology is not just something pastors and people in seminary do, it’s something all of us do as we think about God and live according to our beliefs about God. In this session, Dean Inserra teaches that a growing disciple will always be increasing in their love for and knowledge of God.

Session 6: Missional Heart

When we think of Christian maturity, we often hear about spiritual practices like Bible reading, prayer, and giving, but we don’t often hear about someone who has a heart for the lost. In this session, Dean Inserra teaching we are never more like Jesus than when we are seeking our lost friends, so having a missional heart is an essential mark of a growing disciple.

Marks of a Disciple Trailer

Every Christian—regardless of age, demographic, or background—is designed by God to grow in faith. But many of us don’t know what growth looks like. How do we even know we’re growing? In Marks of a Disciple, pastor Dean Inserra examines six measurements to help us see whether or not we’re developing spiritually. This is not a checklist or a punch card, but rather a group of traits distilled from Scripture that should be evident in the life of a follower of Jesus. As we pursue these markers, our faith can flourish the way God intended.
