What does real discipleship look like when the culture is constantly changing and the spotlight often overshadows the sacrifice?

In this heart-level episode of Like Father, Like Son, Mike and PDev expose the difference between platform and purpose, challenging leaders and believers alike to return to what matters most—grace, truth, and genuine relationships.

From the cost of ministry to the gift of friendship, this conversation is raw, redemptive, and refreshingly real. Whether you're in ministry or just trying to live with purpose, this one will resonate.
