In today’s fast-paced world, it’s easy to overlook the depth and intentionality needed for true discipleship. In today's episode, Brian Daniel and Joel Polk engage with Dr. Coleman Ford, author of Formed in His Image, to discuss the significance of spiritual formation within the church. Dr. Ford emphasizes the need for accessible resources and intentional discipleship practices, while encouraging a slower, more reflective approach to spiritual growth. They explore the evolving nature of spiritual formation, the vital role small groups play in fostering this growth, and even the often-overlooked practice of lament in the Christian life. Leaders are urged to cultivate environments where Scripture and community are prioritized, creating space for deep engagement and transformation.

It’s time to go beyond the surface and invest in the kind of discipleship that makes lasting impact! Thanks for listening and sharing with a friend!
