In this episode, we delve into the profound topic of discipleship, exploring what it truly means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. We revisit and expand upon the definition of a disciple as a learner and a pupil who not only embraces the teachings of the master but also strives to put them into practice in daily life.
Our discussion takes us through key biblical passages, such as Matthew 10:24-25 and Luke 6:40, emphasizing the importance of living a life devoted to God and acknowledging Jesus as the master. We reflect on the significance of striving to be like Christ, learning from His example, and understanding that while we can never surpass our master, we can aspire to be as He is.
We also examine the various stages of spiritual growth, distinguishing between believers, disciples, and Christians. Through thoughtful dialogue, we consider how believers can transform into disciples who actively learn, apply, and live out God's teachings, ultimately becoming Christians who reflect Christ in their actions and character.
Join us as we explore the practical aspects of discipleship, including the call to serve others, the role of the Holy Spirit in guiding us, and the powerful impact of living a Christ-like life in a world in need of compassion and love.

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.
