EP 180: Honest Discipleship

Truth has a unique way of making us uncomfortable before it makes us free. In this transformative episode of Living From Sunday to Sunday, Pastor B dives deep into the concept of "honest discipleship" and why true spiritual growth demands radical transparency.

Drawing from John 8:32, "You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free," Pastor B unpacks a profound spiritual principle: "You can't conquer what you won't confront, and you won't confront anything that you can't confess." This framework creates a roadmap for authentic spiritual transformation that begins with acknowledgment and ends with victory.

The journey toward freedom requires three levels of honesty: with God (confession), with ourselves (confrontation), and with others (conquering). Each step builds upon the previous one, creating a foundation for sustainable growth. Pastor B vulnerably shares his own discipleship journey with financial management, revealing how pride kept him cycling through the same struggles until he embraced mentorship and accountability.

While our culture champions finding your "own truth," Pastor B reminds us that God's way remains the ultimate path to freedom. Jesus never promised absence of pain but offered something better—hope, help, and comfort through life's inevitable challenges. When we abide in God's Word and allow it to influence every aspect of our lives, we experience the freedom that comes from living authentically.

Ready to experience meaningful spiritual gains? Identify areas where you're resisting God's conviction, pray for discernment regarding potential mentors, and commit to transparency with someone who can handle your vulnerability. Your discipleship journey doesn't have to remain stuck—honest reflection paired with committed obedience leads to the transformation your heart truly desires.
