What does it truly mean to become a disciple of Jesus Christ—especially when you feel like you’ve fallen short? In this AnchorPoint episode, we explore powerful teachings from Russell M. Nelson about our divine identity as children of God, children of the covenant, and disciples of Jesus Christ. If you’ve ever wondered how to stay faithful when you feel imperfect, this message will speak directly to your heart.
Discipleship is not about being all in or all out—it is about becoming. Line upon line, step by step, we grow into who the Savior knows we can be. Through the deeply relatable story of Peter the Apostle, we see what it looks like to love Jesus Christ, make mistakes, and still be called, trusted, and transformed. Peter denied Christ—but that was not the end. Through the grace of Jesus Christ, he became bold, faithful, and powerful in his testimony.
If you feel like you’ve “blown it,” this is your reminder: Jesus Christ meets you exactly where you are. He still sees your potential. He still invites you to follow Him. And He is not finished with you.
