The Daily Discipleship Podcast
472 episodes Last Updated: Apr 24, 25
Each installment of Daily Discipleship is taught by Dr. Jim Culbertson, lead pastor of Veracity Chapel in Morrill, Maine and Vice President of Advancement at New England Bible College and Seminary. This podcast is meant to help people to learn and to live as followers of Jesus. From simple explanation of the Bible verse-by-verse to honest commentary on contemporary issues, Daily Discipleship will provide clarity on the meaning of God’s Word, the Bible, and how it applies to daily life. 1 John 2:6 says, ”Whoever claims to live in Him must walk as Jesus did.” We don’t claim to be perfect - we need Jesus everyday - and we don’t claim to have all the answers - God and His ways are much too vast for that!

Acts 7 - Martyrdom to Death
In Acts 7, we see Jesus, up off His throne, watching with bated breath, as His servant, Stephen, lays down his life for the sake of the Gospel and the Jesus he loves. What would Jesus' response to us be as we seek to serve Him?
How do we handle stress and pressure? What does our countenance reveal about our faith? Do people see Jesus in us when the pressure is on?
The early church was growing exponentially, but with that growth came problems, problems that could only be shared by creating structures of care so that Gospel sharing could continue.
As the Gospel was proclaimed, persecution was one response that resulted in a more significant impact. We may suffer for Christ, but that is part of what He works through for a more substantial impact.
Not only were wonderful signs being performed by the Apostles, but God was also giving very poignant warnings to the Church about her accountability.

Acts 2 cf Acts 4 - The Community of Believers
I like to point people to these two chapters combined so they can see what the community of believers was like and the resultant impact. How can we change in the modern era to more fully reflect the sense of community and the results of that community right here, right now?
