In this episode of NCC Unplugged, Joshua Persall (Executive Minister), Allison Murray (Children’s Ministries Director), and Jonathan Slatt (Youth Minister) conclude our six-part discipleship series. Together, they reflect on what it truly means to live as a disciple of Jesus and how to naturally share our faith in everyday life.

From sharing your story—whether it’s dramatic or quiet—to seeing people with Christlike compassion, this conversation highlights how discipleship is less about programs and more about relationships. You’ll hear practical ways to integrate disciple-making into daily rhythms, whether with family, co-workers, or friends.

If you’ve ever wondered how to move from simply “knowing” about discipleship to actually living it out, this episode will encourage and challenge you to take the next step.
