As Christ followers who want to be more serious in our relationship with Jesus we hear a lot about being a disciple of Jesus. We hear so much in church about "making disciples" and "being disciples" but what does it actually mean? How do we do this practically in our every day life? 

To help us understand this better I invited Roger Ross on this week to walk us through some simple yet super effective ways to go from curious to serious about Jesus. Roger has a heart for the spiritually curious. He has served as a church planter, senior pastor, and director of church planting in Missouri. He now leads TheHumilityGroup.org, coaching faith leaders to lead grace-shaped lives that transform the world. Roger and his wife, Leanne Klein Ross, have two adult children, a son-in-law, and one adorable grand dog.

Roger shared about what we can do today to help us become more serious about Jesus. Here's your take home practical advice for the day! Get into scripture!!! This method of REAP is a great simple way to get more serious in your relationship with Christ. 

The REAP method of Scripture Engagement: 

Read: Meditate (think on) on a passage of scripture 2-3 times

Evaluate: Identify commands, promises or principles 

Apply: Determine immediate & practical actions

Pray: Journal the insight and ask God how to apply it

Conversation Highlights:

  • Being curious gets us interested, being serious takes us farther
  • We aren’t meant to stumble across the line of faith but to go deeper with God
  • You are a disciple if you are in the process of making more disciples
  • We aren’t supposed to just know but actually obey what God says
  • Close the gap between what you know and what you do, and that will draw people towards Jesus
  • Establish the habit to be with God, don’t worry about what it looks like
