The Daily Discipleship Podcast
Each installment of Daily Discipleship is taught by Dr. Jim Culbertson, lead pastor of Veracity Chapel in Morrill, Maine and Vice President of Advancement at New England Bible College and Seminary. This podcast is meant to help people to learn and to live as followers of Jesus. From simple explanation of the Bible verse-by-verse to honest commentary on contemporary issues, Daily Discipleship will provide clarity on the meaning of God’s Word, the Bible, and how it applies to daily life. 1 John 2:6 says, ”Whoever claims to live in Him must walk as Jesus did.” We don’t claim to be perfect - we need Jesus everyday - and we don’t claim to have all the answers - God and His ways are much too vast for that!

Wednesday Jan 10, 2024
Jesus had already done some things to convince people of just who He was. Yet, He knew to meet people where they are to convince them where they needed convincing, so He could call them to greater followership. He isn't just looking for Christians, He is looking for followers. Is there a difference between being a Christian and being a follower? Should there be a difference?

When the first disciples left everything to follow Jesus, what did He do with them? They went off to a seminary, right? WRONG! He provided them with His own model and with on-the-job training. There are a whole bunch of lessons to be gleaned from just 5 verses today.

Within the calling of Levi the tax collector, we realize a key evangelistic and disciplemaking principle that we should work in our already existing relational streams. How much more could be accomplished if more of us reached-out with the Gospel to people we already know?
