Discipleship isn’t just about teaching others about Jesus—it’s about living in His presence and helping others do the same. In this episode, Dr. Leonard Sweet joins the conversation to explore the deeper dimensions of discipleship, emphasizing the importance of presencing Jesus rather than merely presenting Him. He unpacks how understanding our humanity through Christ shapes our discipleship efforts in a world that often disconnects faith from daily life.

The discussion also highlights the significance of stillness in our spiritual journey—how slowing down and truly abiding in Christ can transform the way we disciple others. Dr. Sweet challenges leaders to move beyond information-driven discipleship and instead cultivate a life that reflects Christ authentically. Whether you're leading a small group or mentoring others one-on-one, this conversation will encourage you to embrace a more relational and transformative approach to discipleship.
