Starting Place with Elizabeth Woodson

Real Life Discipleship: Consumeristic Christianity with Oghosa Iyamu


Listen Later

In this episode, Elizabeth sits down with Oghosa Iyamu to talk about a current trend that is making discipleship difficult – Consumeristic Christianity. They discuss how attraction-driven ministry shapes our discipleship, why it can stunt our spiritual growth, and how sound theology and community can help believers engage God’s vision for the local church, discipleship, and mission more deeply. 

Main Takeaways
  • Consumeristic Christianity prioritizes receiving over serving.
  • True spiritual experiences should lead to lasting transformation.
  • Discipleship should happen primarily in and through the local church
  • Content creators should strengthen, not replace, the local church.
  • Casting a clear vision helps believers embrace their role in God’s mission.
