In this first part of their conversation, Pastors Nate and Whitney break down what discipleship really looks like — not as a program or a weekly appointment, but as time, relationship, and intentionality.

They unpack how Jesus discipled: not in rushed moments, but in hours, days, and everyday life. From bleachers at basketball games to shared workspaces, gym conversations, or simple friendships, they highlight how spiritual growth often happens in the normal rhythms of life when we slow down and intentionally invest in each other.

Nate and Whitney talk about the kind of relationships that shape us — people who care deeply about our walk with Jesus and help us become more like Him.

They challenge listeners to consider both sides of discipleship:

• Who is caring for you in Christ?
• And who are you intentionally helping grow in Him?

They remind us that theology isn’t just something we read — it’s lived out through examples, mentorship, and real-life moments. From Paul and Timothy to parents discipling their own kids, the call to make disciples touches every relationship we have.

This episode invites you to see discipleship not as something extra to squeeze into your schedule, but something woven into the moments you’re already living — moments where God grows us through the people He places around us.
