In this episode of Lance Johnson Ministries, Bishop Lance Johnson tackles a topic that resonates with anyone pondering their spiritual journey: are you simply a member of your church, or a true follower of Jesus? With his characteristic candour and warmth, Bishop Lance draws on his own experiences, having faced the challenges of addiction and found solace in faith. He emphasises the importance of deep, meaningful relationships over mere numbers, using Jesus' choice of twelve disciples as a prime example.
Bishop Lance doesn't shy away from challenging the status quo, urging you to evaluate whether you're truly sold out to Jesus or just going through the motions. He shares the idea that if you're not completely committed, you're susceptible to compromise. His message encourages reflection on what it means to truly follow Christ and how that should impact every aspect of life—from personal relationships to daily responsibilities.
Using anecdotes and scripture, he paints a vivid picture of how spiritual maturity can empower individuals to weather life's storms with grace. You'll find his teachings both relatable and challenging, prompting you to consider what might be holding you back from fully embracing your faith. If you've ever questioned your spiritual path or wondered how to deepen your relationship with God, this episode offers valuable insights that might just spark a transformation.
