What if discipleship isn't just another Christian buzzword but the very essence of following Jesus? In this profound conversation with Steven David (known online as Sahil the Disciple), we unpack what it truly means to be a disciple in today's complex world.
Steven offers a refreshingly simple yet powerful definition of discipleship as "the art of obedience" - learning to follow Jesus in every aspect of life. Drawing from scripture, particularly John 15 and Matthew 28, he illuminates how abiding in Christ forms the foundation of all discipleship efforts. "Without Jesus, if I am not connected to the Lord Jesus Christ, I can't do anything," Steven explains, highlighting our dependence on divine connection.
For those experiencing spiritual dryness, Steven offers compelling wisdom about continuing spiritual practices even when emotions wane. Using marriage as an analogy, he emphasizes that just as spouses don't abandon their relationship during emotional lulls, we shouldn't abandon our spiritual disciplines during desert seasons.
Whether you're a new believer seeking guidance, a seasoned Christian mentoring others, or someone navigating a spiritually dry season, this conversation offers practical wisdom for authentic discipleship in today's world. Connect with Steven @SahiltheDisciple on social platforms where he continues to share insights on theology, relationships, and Christian living.
