“I want to become the person that naturally is like Jesus because I have been with Him for so long.”  - Dr. James Bryan Smith

Dr. James Bryan Smith is the founder and Executive Director of the Apprentice Institute for Christian Spiritual Formation, as well as a founding member of Richard J. Foster’s spiritual renewal ministry, Renovaré. He is an ordained United Methodist Church minister and speaks throughout the world about Christian spiritual formation. 

In the fall of 2016, Dr. Smith was part of the Friends University team that developed a master’s degree program in Christian spiritual formation and leadership. He is the author of the best-selling “The Good and Beautiful” book series and “The Magnificent” series.

In this podcast, we hope you will discover:

  • The difference between spiritual formation and discipleship.
  • The devastating result of teaching people only the spiritual disciplines.
  • Why James refers to himself as the “Forrest Gump of Christianity”
