In this first of a five-part series on discipleship, Dave and Dante discuss the first stage: spiritually dead.

Listen in as the guys talk about characteristics of spiritually dead neighbors, and more importantly, how to show them the love of Jesus. The goal: help them to realize the life they can have when they turn towards Jesus.

Idols - Part 1 Feb 07, 2022

Whether you idolize money, or things, or image, or relationships, the end result is always the same: the wrath of God. He is a selfish and jealous God, and being the Creator, well, He has every right to be so. And because of that, He doesn't take too well to sharing our devotion. Listen to this first episode and hear how the guys work through what idolization looks like today - and why it can ruin your legacy!
