Ever wonder what it really means to be a disciple of Jesus? Each week, we explore discipleship—personally, relationally, and organizationally—through both ancient wisdom and today’s realities. Whether you’re growing your own faith or shaping a community, you’ll find practical ways to get rooted in truth and live it out authentically. We may wrestle, we may laugh, but if you come curious, the Lord will meet you here. So grab your coffee—or your headphones—and join us as we discover what it means to BE Rooted in faith today.
In this episode, we explore the Great Commission Jesus gave in Matthew 28:18–20: to go, make disciples of all nations, baptize them, and teach them to obey everything He commanded. The Great Commission is not only a call for missionaries or church leaders; it is the responsibility of every follower of Christ. Nick discusses what it means to live with purpose, share the gospel, invest in others, and help people grow into mature disciples.
