Episode Summary

In this episode, Rob explores why the Christian life was never meant to be lived alone. Drawing from 2 Timothy 2:2, he unpacks the biblical blueprint for spiritual multiplication—Paul → Timothy → Reliable People → Others. Rob explains how real impact comes not from doing everything yourself, but from raising up others to carry the message forward.

Rob also shares insights from leadership expert Carl George, reminding listeners that effective leaders accomplish work through people—not by doing everything themselves. Whether you're a ministry leader, a small group leader, or simply a believer wanting to grow, this episode will help you break the "solo Christian" mindset and embrace the 10X approach of multiplying disciples.
