Discipleship is powerful---which means it can either form people into Christlikeness or deeply wound them. Let's talk about what healthy, Biblical discipleship actually looks like.

In this conversation episode of flower & flame, we define what Biblical discipleship truly is---and what it is not.

We talk about the difference between discipleship and mentorship, and why spiritual health matters when influence is involved. Anchored in the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20), we explore how best to use the authority and influence Jesus entrusted to His Church.

We also have an honest conversation about how unhealthy spiritual leaders can cause real harm---even abuse---when influence is not submitted to Christ. We even referenced the current public example of the false prophecy controversy connected to Bethel Church as we reflect on the dangers of power disconnected from integrity.

We close with this reminder: Scripture is the final authority over every leader. When influence contradicts the Bible in its full context, it is loving and faithful to call one another back to Truth and wholeness. Discipleship should produce humility, repentance, and Christlikeness---not control or fear.
