In this raw and challenging episode on The Unfiltered Faith Podcast, Austin pulls back the curtain on what it really means to follow Jesus in today’s culture.
✅ We talk about how easy it is to fall into the Churchgoer Trap—where you might know all the right Christian words, show up every Sunday, and still miss the heart of discipleship.
✅ We unpack what a real disciple is—not based on cultural Christianity, but on the actual words of Jesus.
✅ And we wrestle with the cost of following Him. Spoiler alert: It’s not cheap, but it’s absolutely worth it.
Then we get practical: 👉 What does it look like to actually live this out in 2025? 👉 How do you follow Jesus with your phone in one hand, pressure from culture in the other, and still keep your eyes on the cross?
Whether you’re new to faith, deconstructing and rebuilding, or just tired of surface-level Christianity—this one’s for you.
In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
- What separates a churchgoer from a true disciple
- The 4 common traps of cultural Christianity
- What Jesus actually said about following Him
- Why the cost of discipleship is good news
- 7 marks of a modern-day disciple in 2025
- A powerful call to action you can live out this week

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
