Come, Follow Me Preparing for the Practice | Michael Newton


Listen Later

As we stand at the threshold of a new year, it’s natural to reflect on who we’ve been—and who we’re becoming. In this message from Matthew 4v18–20, we’re reminded that discipleship doesn’t begin with resolutions, information, or trying harder, but with a simple invitation from Jesus: “Come, follow me.”

This teaching explores what it means to be formed through practice rather than intention, to follow Jesus not just in belief but in way of life. Together, we reflect on the habits and rhythms that are shaping us, the “nets” we may be holding onto, and how Jesus patiently forms us over time as we walk with Him.

This episode is an invitation to slow down, reflect honestly, and prepare for a year not of spiritual intensity, but of faithful, communal practice—trusting that as we follow, Jesus will do what He promised: “I will make you.”
