448 Real Faith or a Counterfeit? The Heart of True Discipleship (Lk 6 prt3)

from The Daily Grind · host John Spencer

Wednesday, February 19th: Ezekiel 36:24-32 & Luke 6:43-49In this episode of The Daily Grind, John takes us on a journey through Ezekiel 36 and Luke 6, exploring what it means to have a transformed heart. Ezekiel speaks of God's promise to replace hearts of stone with hearts of flesh, a divine heart transplant that enables true obedience. Jesus then challenges His followers with the reality that good trees produce good fruit, and counterfeit faith will eventually be exposed. Using the parable of the two builders, John reminds us that everyone faces storms in life, but only those who build on the solid foundation of Jesus' words will stand firm. Are we merely hearing God’s word, or are we truly living it out? John shares a powerful analogy about counterfeit Rolex watches to illustrate how easy it is to look real while missing the mark. He encourages us to do a heart check: Is our faith genuine? Are we obeying Jesus, or just putting on a show? The good news is that Jesus doesn’t just demand obedience—He empowers it through His Spirit. Tune in for an engaging, practical, and hope-filled message about building a faith that lasts. ⁠⁠⁠Email me your questions, comments, and suggestions.
