Practicing the Way Podcast Episode 01: Apprentice to Jesus

In Episode 01: Apprentice to Jesus, John Mark Comer and Tyler Staton define what it means to be an apprentice of Jesus in contrast to current understandings of the term “Christian” in Western culture, why apprenticeship is so desperately needed, and the myth of radical individualism.

Thank you John Mark Comer for allowing me to see, through your teachings and writings, that the longing I had felt in my soul for so many years was the absence of the pursuit of discipleship to Jesus. Now this knowledge I’ve gained with your assistance has led me to the path I was meant to be on my entire life.

I "got saved" when I was 16, by myself in my mom's living room. I had no idea what was next. I'd watch Billy Graham crusades and tons of people got saved. No one ever said....Okay, now do this. We have altar calls and people all over turn their hearts over to Jesus. And we rejoice for them! Of course we do! But no one teaches them to follow Jesus!! I'm 70 years old now and have been searching since I was 16 for the "Now What? Oh my goodness, I think I finally found it!!

God has called you, JMC, to bless this grand audience, in this season, with all of the long form discussions God has ordained, within you. Thank you for moving into this season, and for being willing to share what the Holy Spirit is revealing to you, with the rest of us.

I bought this book, I'm reading it. I'm a Messianic Jew and yes The Way is his way.

[darrylcarlton]

Let me add my thoughts to an appreciation of John Mark Comer (and Tyler Staton, too). His genius mind seems to be totally in service to his Lord and mine, Christ Jesus. Ever since I have discovered his teachings, I have not stopped thanking God for him. Amen!

[heistruth]

Read Practicing the Way this past summer with my church. Tomorrow we start the study guide with dinner at our church.

This was such a practical & vital book. I'm planning on gifting it to friends. Praying they will know Him as He designed.

Thank you Pastor Comer for shepherding my heart during this season in my life. I have been blessed by embracing a more contemplative spirituality that is much more conducive to becoming like Jesus than the tradition I grew up in. May God continue to use you and your ministry.

Would love to see some version of this for Middle School/ Highschool!
Brining up a generation of Apprentices to Jesus!

[Diytinyliving]

Thank you for these conversations. After listening it feels as if for the first time I can take a deep breath. Far too much content is shallow and empty but this conversation gives room for a deep consideration.

[johnwestwell]

Thank you for the clarity, simplicity and wisdom of your work. May God bless you as you continue to respond to Rabbi Jesus' call to make disciples.

[scottharrison]

Thank you John Mark and Tyler, you are such a blessing to my journey from the other side of the USA (Florida). Praying to become part of the 4% who are being with Jesus, becoming like Jesus and doing what Jesus did as a disciple (learner).

[jessicaladd]
