This week on The Journey, we explore the delicate balance between pursuing influence and maintaining authenticity.
We're reminded that disciples make disciples, not through programs or systems, but through genuine relationships. This echoes Jesus' own method of discipleship, spending time with those He was mentoring.
As we navigate the complexities of modern ministry and communication, we're challenged to consider: How can we use our influence responsibly while staying true to our calling? The discussion brings to mind the apostle Paul's words in 1 Corinthians 11:1, 'Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.'
We're encouraged to be faithful with whatever influence we have, whether it's over a few or many, always keeping our focus on glorifying God rather than building our own platforms.
This episode is particularly relevant in a digital age, where the temptation to chase numbers and likes can easily distract us from our true purpose of making disciples.
