On this Freedom Friday, freedom rang through the air as we discussed the distinction between labeling oneself as a Christian but not living like one, and actually living as a follower of Christ and disciple. In today’s culture, the word "Christian" has been used as a title to categorize the type of religion one identifies with, rather than being defined as a lifestyle that mirrors Christ’s walk. As Christians, we are called to walk as Christ did, meaning we cannot live as the world tells us to. We turned to the phone lines to ask listeners the question, “When did you change from Christian in name only to a genuine disciple of Jesus Christ?"
