CityChurch Podcast | Passionately in Love With Jesus

In this episode of the City Church Charlotte podcast, the new series A Biblical Approach to Leaders and Disciplemakersbegins with a foundational message titled “Passionately in Love with Jesus,” emphasizing that true leadership and disciplemaking start not with strategy, gifting, or influence, but with a deep and genuine relationship with Christ. The conversation explores how the Great Commission flows out of intimacy with Jesus, highlighting that before believers are called to go and make disciples, they are first invited to come and worship Him. Drawing from Matthew 28, the life of Jesus, and the restoration of Peter, the episode teaches that effective leadership grows from daily devotion, consistent time with God, and a love relationship that produces courage, obedience, and spiritual overflow. Listeners are encouraged to cultivate daily rhythms of prayer, Scripture, and worship so that their lives and leadership flow from being filled with the presence of Jesus rather than striving through performance or pressure. This episode challenges believers to measure leadership not by influence or achievement but by how closely they follow Christ and how His love flows through them to others.
