Episode 4 Evangelism and Discipleship

In this episode of the Waypoints Podcast, Pastor Lyle explores the deep connection between evangelism and discipleship. Discipleship doesn’t start with a program—it starts with a person encountering Jesus. Using Matthew 28, Mark 1, and John 1, this conversation unpacks how Jesus called His first followers and how we’re invited to do the same today. You’ll hear why sharing your faith is the first step in making disciples, how obedience through baptism marks the beginning of spiritual growth, and why follow-up and intentional relationships are essential for maturity.

Episode 3 Examples of Discipleship

In this episode of the Waypoints Podcast, we’re diving into Examples of Discipleship and exploring how Andrew, Barnabas, and Aquila & Priscilla demonstrate what it means to invest in others for the sake of the Gospel. These often-overlooked figures in scripture played a crucial role in bringing people to Jesus, strengthening fellow believers, and equipping the next generation of leaders. What does it mean to be a disciple-maker? How can we intentionally point others to Jesus? What role does encouragement play in discipleship? We’ll also discuss the importance of humility in discipleship—being willing to lift others up, even when it means they may surpass us. True discipleship is not about building a name for ourselves but about multiplying the work of the Gospel so that the next generation can go even further. If you were to be duplicated, would the church thrive or struggle? Let’s explore how we can be faithful disciple-makers who focus on knowing, growing, and showing our faith daily.
