The Great Commission Was Never Just for Pastors | with Peyton Jones

from The Berean Files · host Zack Killey

What if the greatest mission Jesus gave His followers has quietly become something we expect pastors and church leaders to do for us?In this episode of The Berean Files, we sit down with Peyton Jones, author of Discipology, to explore the biblical model of disciple-making and why it was never intended to be reserved for ministry professionals. From the very beginning, Jesus called ordinary men and women to follow Him, learn from Him, and then go make disciples of others.We discuss why so many Christians feel unequipped to disciple someone, how the modern church can unintentionally confuse attendance with discipleship, and what it looks like to live out the Great Commission in everyday life—as parents, coworkers, neighbors, friends, and members of our local churches.Whether you've been a Christian for decades or you're wondering where to begin, this conversation is a practical and biblical reminder that the call to make disciples belongs to every believer.In this episode:Why the Great Commission isn't just for pastorsThe difference between church attendance and disciple-makingHow Jesus' model can be lived out todayPractical ways to begin discipling othersWhy multiplication—not addition—was always God's planwww.discipology.com"Go therefore and make disciples of all nations..." — Matthew 28:19–20If this conversation encourages you, be sure to subscribe, share this episode with someone who wants to grow in their faith, and let us know in the comments: Who has discipled you, and who are you discipling?#TheBereanFiles #Discipleship #GreatCommission #PeytonJones #Discipology #ChristianPodcast #DiscipleMaking #BiblicalLeadership #FollowJesus #Church
