Disciple Makers Podcast with Torben Sondergaard

What does it really mean to be “free indeed”?

Jesus said:
“So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” (John 8:36)

Yet many believers truly love Jesus—yet they are still bound.
They want to live free, but they keep struggling with the same sin again and again.

In Episode 2 of the Disciple Makers Podcast, we talk about a truth many avoid:

👉 A half gospel cannot produce real fre...

Many believers have knowledge—but very little fruit. Jesus said the Father is glorified when we bear much fruit (John 15). 

In this first episode of the Disciple Makers Podcast, we talk about the two kinds of fruit the Bible points to: 

✅ Fruit of the Spirit (character & holiness) 

✅ Fruit of making disciples (obedience, multiplication, and seeing lives transformed) 

This is not a fancy studio—we’re on the road—but the me...

Many churches today focus on meetings but often miss the life of discipleship that Jesus called us to. The Church Plus Vision is not about stopping Sunday gatherings but about adding the missing elements that bring transformation. 

By making room for testimonies, obedience to the Word, and practical disciple-making, the DNA of the church can change. In this lesson, you will discover how to practically add these elements and see...

Christ Himself gave apostles, prophets, evangelists, shepherds, and teachers—not as titles, but as gifts to equip His body. These gifts are not for a few “special” leaders but for the growth and unity of the whole church. 

In this lesson, you will discover the true purpose of the five-fold ministry, how it works in practice, and why every gift is needed for the church to become mature and fruitful.

We are born again as spiritual infants, but we should not remain that way. With the right food at the right time, we can grow quickly—from infants, to young disciples, to mature parents who raise up the next generation. In this lesson, you will discover the different spiritual levels, why it is important to recognize them, and how to help people grow from one stage to the next. This understanding is vital if we want to see true mul...

Jesus gave us the perfect model. He spent time with the Father, reached the one, mentored the three, discipled the twelve, empowered the 120, and touched the multitudes. 

If we leave out any part of His model, we will miss the fullness of what God wants to do through us.

The right seed in the right ground will not produce without doing the Word. Listening alone, without action, brings no transformation. It is the doing of the Word that makes the seed grow into what it was created to be. This is an important lesson for every pastor and leader: no one can do this alone, which is why God has given us the five-fold ministry.

The right seed in the right ground creates an explosion of fruit—thirty, sixty, and a hundredfold.

 But not everyone is the right ground. In this lesson, you will discover: 

• Why the right ground is so important 

• How to find it or help your church become it 

• Why the seed cannot grow on its own—it needs the right ground to become what it was created to be

If you want to make disciples who multiply by making more disciples, you need the right seed. You begin with the seed and end up with many seeds—because the seed is the only thing that can multiply. As you will discover in Lesson 1, there is real power in the seed, and once you truly understand this, you will never be the same again.

What if your church could become a movement that makes disciples who multiply? 

We are very excited to welcome you! This series has been in the making for over 20 years. We could not share this if we ourselves had not first walked this journey. Welcome to the Introduction, where you will learn step by step how to transform your church into a disciple-making movement. 

This is for pastors, leaders, and anyone who desires to ...

Understanding the cross of Christ will is an eye-opener for many. You will see that when we talk about the cross, we often stop too early. Christ did not simply rise and then disappear; the cross is not only about the restoration of Christ, as He is the firstfruits. 

It also points to the restoration of all of us when He returns. I truly love the cross, and I know we all do. However, we must understand that the cross is behind ...

We have now come to Jesus' teachings and His parables about the kingdom. If the church could just understand this, everything would change. Most live as if there is no wedding coming or don't understand the meaning of being prepared, having clothed themselves in fine linen. 

This teaching opens up the parables of Jesus, making you fall in love with them and helping you to be ready for that day when the King has a wedding f...

There has never been a message I have spoken that has made a difference in Christians like this one. Many heard it and, in their hearts, decided to become good soil. One year later, their lives were dramatically different, bearing much fruit, all because they began listening to this teaching.

"A sower went out to sow. And as he sowed, some seed fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured it. Other seed fell on rocky gr...

When are you saved? 

Being 'saved' is not a single point in lives where it all happens. It's not a vertical line on the timeline of our lives. No, it's horizontal. It's a journey, a road, we need to walk - and we need to finish that road. Torben explains what the Bible teaches about this.

On this episode Torben discusses spiritual levels of maturity. What do they reveal about our journey with Jesus?

1 John 2:12-13: "I am writing to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven for his name's sake. I am writing to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one."

In this teaching, Torben shows how the five-fold ministry operates in a very practical way.

It's time to see the church grow to maturity, and that comes as every member is built up. Each member of the body must take part with the gifts that God has given them. This teaching is greatly needed in the churches.

This beautiful lesson reveals Jesus as the King and how important that is to understand. Sadly, most only look at Him as the Savior, and together with that, they don’t understand that the Kingdom of God is a physical kingdom that will be here on earth, where Jesus is the child born to sit on the throne of King David.

This lesson will be a blessing and open up Scripture. When you first become aware of the connection betwee...
