How to Make Disciples Without Guilt, Fear, or Pressure

January 07, 2026 • Freedom Fellowship • Episode 158

What does it really mean to live out the Great Commission—without guilt, shame, or fear?

In this episode of Monday Moments, Travis sits down with Pastor James to unpack what it looks like to be intentional about making disciples in everyday life. Together, they explore Jesus’ heart for the lost, the danger of complacency, and how compassion—not pressure—should fuel evangelism and discipleship.

This conversation goes beyond programs and formulas, focusing instead on proximity, relationships, and living a life that quietly but powerfully preaches the gospel.

In this episode, we discuss:

Why Jesus came “to seek and to save the lost”
How good things can subtly distract us from our calling
The difference between conviction and shame
Why proximity matters more than pressure in disciple-making
How to share the gospel through everyday rhythms of life
What it looks like to live with compassion, patience, and intentionality
Why discipleship often requires inconvenience—and why it’s worth it

Whether you feel hesitant, afraid of rejection, or burdened by past experiences with guilt-driven evangelism, this episode offers a refreshing, grace-filled perspective on living out your faith authentically.

You’re preaching a gospel every day. What story is your life telling?
