Christian Accountability: Pitfalls and Promises

26 minutes

We often hear the word ‘accountability’ thrown around in Christian circles. For some, it can hold deep meaning and value; for others, it can conjure up feelings of failure, shame, or defeat.

In this episode of the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we talk about how accountability relationships are not all good or beneficial... but they can be! We’ll give you several steps toward participating in gospel-centered accountability that can transform your life.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

Why most people shy away from accountability relationships (and should).

How many people hide their true selves while pretending to be accountable.

8 Accountability Group killers to avoid.

What powerful, gospel-centered accountability looks and sounds like.

From this episode:

“In my past experience with accountability groups or relationships, it seemed the focus was primarily on trying to ‘not sin’. I had to come together each week and lay out all my sins and failures and where I failed. It was all pretty much sin-management focused. Is there a better way to do this?”

Each week the Big 3 will give you immediate action steps to get you started.
