Join us for a truly enlightening conversation with Jason Phelps, the Discipling Director and Executive Team Member at Gloria Day Lutheran Church, Houston, Texas. Jason’s unique journey, from being immersed in worship arts to fostering a culture of intentional disciple-making within the church, offers profound insights on transforming church-goers into kingdom contributors. 

During our chat, we explore how worship shapes the church community and varies according to context. Our dialogue takes a deep dive into the power of sharing transformation stories across different congregation sizes and how celebrating values publicly can influence a community. Jason and I also discuss how Gloria Day Lutheran Church is moving away from the consumer model and embracing the kingdom contributor model to promote a discipling culture.

As we conclude our conversation, Jason shares the essential ingredients needed to catalyze a disciple-making movement. We delve into the significance of adopting a mission-focused, outcome-focused, habit-fueled, content-flavored, and community-forged approach. Jason also addresses misconceptions about spiritual gifts, highlighting the profound connection between these gifts and the character of Christ. Join us as we unpack the concept of a fully alive life, exploring how the church can foster deep community and exert influence through our unique gifts and passions. Tune in and discover a fresh perspective on discipleship, worship, and church culture.
