#65 - Bring Them Back | James 5:19-20 | Pray Like It Matters

People rarely walk away from God all at once—they drift slowly. In this episode of The Daily Rebel, we close out James with a powerful challenge from James 5:19–20: don’t just follow Jesus—go after people who are drifting from Him. James warns that truth can become blurred, convictions can soften, and compromise can slowly pull people away from God over time. Most people don’t reject truth loudly; they wander quietly. And the danger is bigger than behavior—it’s eternal. This episode calls believers out of passive Christianity and into courageous love that pursues people instead of watching them drift away. We unpack three major truths:Truth gets twisted — Culture constantly redefines truth, normalizes sin, and softens conviction. Drift rarely happens overnight; it happens compromise by compromise. Love takes action — Real love doesn’t stay silent when someone is wandering. Silence may feel safe, but pursuit is what restores people. Sometimes the most loving thing you can do is step into an uncomfortable conversation. Souls are saved — Bringing someone back to truth is not just behavior correction—it’s life, death, and eternity. God uses ordinary people to rescue wandering people. The gospel is the ultimate picture of pursuit. Jesus didn’t wait for you to come back—He came after you when you were wandering. And now we’re called to do the same for others. So don’t stay passive. Speak up. Step in. Go after people with truth and grace. Because redeemed rebels don’t sit back and watch people drift… they go get them.Send us Fan MailBook Derek Griffon to Speak at your next event https://www.derekgriffon.com/invite
