SENT: Make Disciples Not Converts

Make disciples, not converts—this episode reframes the Great Commission as Jesus intended: not just decisions, but lifelong discipleship that pushes back darkness and multiplies through everyday relationships. We’ll walk through the rhythm of presence → peace → power → purpose, why obedience is the true measure of discipleship, and simple steps you can take this week to start making reproducible disciples right where you live.

Experience the Love of God: The Miracle of Proximity

You can walk into a room and feel it immediately—warmth or coldness, welcome or distance. In this episode, we talk about the Miracle of Proximity and why God designed the local church to be the place where people experience the love of God through His people.Jesus said the world would recognize His disciples not by preaching, gifting, or production—but by love. And that kind of love isn’t sentimental or performative. It’s covenant, and it requires closeness. Proximity creates pressure—but that pressure doesn’t have to push us apart. God uses it to expose what’s still unlike Christ in us, soften hearts of stone, and grow a culture of real, visible, Spirit-empowered love.If you’ve been tempted toward isolation, offense, or “one foot in, one foot out” Christianity, this episode is an invitation back into the sheepfold—into covenant community—where God heals, shapes, and stations His people for mission.Key Scriptures (ESV): John 13:34–35, Jeremiah 17:9, Ezekiel 36:26–27, Romans 5:5, Galatians 6:2, Hebrews 10:24–25, John 10:11, Ephesians 3:10Takeaway: Love doesn’t happen by accident in exile. It has to be fought for—together.
