Our church has been going through Practicing the Way and many of our community groups have been doing it on a weekly basis. We just completed the fasting practice and it has been amazing. I used to fast in the past, but now I am learning so much more. What’s even better is doing it in community. Thank you so much. I will be 70 soon and sense God growing me so much more since we started this series beginning with Sabbath.
I am such a fan boy for John mark, we have begun the practicing the way journey and it will take 3 years to complete! Shout out to riverside church in fort meyers florida!!
Thank you both for this amazing teaching. It has brought me into a deeper relationship with Jesus and in turn I pray so with people. I have been a “Christian” for 34 years. This is truly one of the most transformative teachings I have ever listened to. I am not saying that to build either of you up, but to share how God has used you in my life to draw me closer to being like Him. Thank you.
Basically nothing has a finish line and always trust and praise In God as he gave you life and will continue to carry you through life as long as you trust him but you also need to have a relationship with God, not just hope that he’s there.
Early in the video (at 1:05) Mr. Comer says of Jesus's words in Matthew 7:13-14 that Jesus "could really use a PR person in a marketing department." Did you really say that? Mr. Comer, are you giving Jesus advice? Because you think His words in said Scripture sound too harsh? Please, I urge you to recant this statement, in light of the warning in James 3:1. I have listened to several of these podcasts. And you and Tyler make several good insights into discipleship. Yet, my concern is you're not giving the full picture of Jesus according to everything He said and did in the four gospels. And that some of it you're interpreting through the lens of modern psychology. Please let Jesus be Jesus. Furthermore, how is your understanding of the discipleship of Jesus in the gospels relate to the gospel teaching of justification by faith alone in Paul? I have observed that it's almost trendy today to treat the Pauline epistles as deuterocanonical in relation to the Gospels. I write all of this in love.
I took what he said, as being facetious. I don’t think he was actually saying Jesus needs a PR person, I think he was just getting at the point that from our human way of doing things, Jesus did things in a way that most of us wouldn’t. I don’t think anyone actually thinks that he’s saying Jesus needs a PR person.
“Without Him we can’t and without us He won’t.”

Thank you for sharing your encouraging words. I'm so excited that at 70 you are still growing and pursuing Jesus
This is beautiful.

Can it be? Another Floridian who loves JMC?!?!?! I was beginning to think I was the only one
This is the heart of what's missing in the modern organized church. Thank you!
May the Lord bless you from Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic! I really loved this episode, thanks for sharing it!
That definition of discipleship is everything!! So good
