  <description><![CDATA[<p>What if disciple-making isn’t a program, but a way of life?<br>Join Drew, Heather, and others as they explore what it means to live as everyday missionaries- right where you live, work, and play. Through stories, insights, and practical tools, you’ll learn how to see your ordinary spaces as the places God has already sent you. Because when followers of Jesus live like sons and daughters who are sent ones, every home, neighborhood, and workplace can become a place where disciples are made… here.</p>]]></description>

    <itunes:summary><![CDATA[What is spiritual formation in the context of our daily lives? In this episode, we dive into the heart of missional living and explore why the choice isn't evangelism or discipleship—it’s both. We discuss the cost of discipleship by looking at our own "R1" relationship with Christ. Whether you're focused on outreach at work or discipleship in your home, learn how to move from "autopilot" to intentional presence. ]]></itunes:summary>

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode of the Disciples Made Here podcast, Drew is joined by his bride Jen Sodestrom for a conversation about the most sacred discipleship community we&apos;re a part of: our families.</p><p>Parenting isn&apos;t a side category of discipleship. It is discipleship. The 18-year camping trip. The identify, invite, imitate, and innovate happening in real time around the dinner table, in the car, and on the ball field. Jen brings her background as a high school teacher, college professor, children&apos;s pastor, and child psychology to a deeply honest conversation about what it actually looks like to raise kids who are rooted in Christ rather than just shaped by rules.</p><p>From a four-year-old named Carson at the state capitol steps learning what it means to have a debt paid, to a car ride conversation about a teenager smoking on the side of the road that turned into a lesson on compassion and prayer, to the difference between preparing the road for your child versus preparing your child for the road — this episode is full of real stories, hard-won wisdom, and practical phrases for every phase.</p><p>The goal was never behavior modification.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In this episode of the Disciples Made Here podcast, Drew is joined by his bride Jen Sodestrom for a conversation about the most sacred discipleship community we&apos;re a part of: our families.</p><p>Parenting isn&apos;t a side category of discipleship. It is discipleship. The 18-year camping trip. The identify, invite, imitate, and innovate happening in real time around the dinner table, in the car, and on the ball field. Jen brings her background as a high school teacher, college professor, children&apos;s pastor, and child psychology to a deeply honest conversation about what it actually looks like to raise kids who are rooted in Christ rather than just shaped by rules.</p><p>From a four-year-old named Carson at the state capitol steps learning what it means to have a debt paid, to a car ride conversation about a teenager smoking on the side of the road that turned into a lesson on compassion and prayer, to the difference between preparing the road for your child versus preparing your child for the road — this episode is full of real stories, hard-won wisdom, and practical phrases for every phase.</p><p>The goal was never behavior modification. It was always heart transformation. Heaven over Harvard. Abide over achieve. And a family that sees themselves not just as sons and daughters, but as sent ones.</p><p>⸻</p><p>Reflection Questions</p><ul><li>Are you inviting your kids into the why behind the what, or defaulting to &quot;because I said so&quot;?</li><li>What phrases or rhythms could you introduce into your family that help your kids become self-assessors and independent thinkers rooted in Christ?</li><li>Are you preparing the road for your child, or preparing your child for the road?

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode of the Disciples Made Here podcast, Drew and Heather move into the third movement of the Disciples Diamond — Imitate. And it might be the most sobering and freeing part of the whole journey.<br/>Someone is always watching. Our kids. Our coworkers. Our neighbors. The people we coach. The people we eat with. Whether we know it or not, whether we like it or not, they are following us as we follow Jesus. And that means who we are following matters just as much as who is following us.<br/>Drew and Heather unpack what imitation actually looks like in real life — through arguments with your spouse, through a 16-year-old who steps in to pray when his parents can&apos;t, through a four-generation discipleship chain that started with Todd and ended up in Brayden&apos;s youth group. They also introduce one of the most clarifying distinctions in all of discipleship: inheritance is what you leave to someone. Legacy is what you leave in someone.<br/>This episode is also an honest conversation about seasons, about the difference between natural imitation and intentional formation, and about why disciple making was never supposed to be impressive. It was always supposed to be dependent.<br/>Imitation is natural. Formation has to be intentional.<br/><br/>⸻<br/>Reflection Questions<br/><br/>Who are the five people you spend the most time with? Are they pulling you closer to Jesus or further away?<br/>What legacy are you leaving in the people around you, not to them, but in them?<br/>Who in your life is already watching you that you could intentionally invite to follow as you follow Jesus?<br/><br/>⸻<br/>Connect With Disciples Made Here<br/>Instagram <a href='https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqblQ3NUVxaWt2WUJhY3JYLXUtM3k1YmVDdFpjQXxBQ3Jtc0tsejlmeE9meGtEWG9KQ3ExY0dkQjlJeXJRbGhwNmpQRUZjeWVtb0ttWlFoa0ZHRnE1YktpSHljVlFoOW1WRE96Yklxb0dZMW1VWVNCeHdIWVdXYkVRd0xzYWRTSV9sRjBHMGMyR3VGTE1oWnFESDhWUQ&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Fdisciplesmadehere%2F&amp;v=NxSHen-qwaA'>  / disciplesmadehere  </a><br/>Facebook <a href='https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqa0taS0FqbERrVDJDRVVnYldtTTJEVnZPSjI3UXxBQ3Jtc0tuaVU0UlBzTGNlbkhRdDBmcU9zeWFYQXM5SE1INmVpOWxRck9ZcjdJN0hJc0lDaEVfZ0g1bHpwbGg0Yll0clRYVkVjd21IOXZBeUx5R0R4OTZwX05ReEhYbUpRNzRaVl83RFhVWWdWeEZZa01yNVBraw&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fdisciplesmadehere&amp;v=NxSHen-qwaA'>  / disciplesmadehere  </a><br/>Website <a href='https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqbS1DblhrdEo1RFR2TjQydGQ3TFpVZXdaaUlFUXxBQ3Jtc0trZmVxMU95Smd6NkFQWWpkRWp2elNaSGFHRFhRSGZKUFA3cVlUSFV4WnBveDJ5cURMYVdDbnMtbGE4ZWV1SXc5VHVWSnZvYWFpQkdMY0cyeTZTUWpsNXEwdEtuZ1lEN1ZIWVc2S0JLaGFZOW1TRmFyRQ&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fdisciplesmadehere.org%2F&amp;v=NxSHen-qwaA'>https://disciplesmadehere.org/</a></p>]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode of the Disciples Made Here podcast, Drew sits down with Hugh Halter — church planter, author, painter, pizza shop owner, and one of the most incarnationally faithful missionaries Drew knows. From inner city Portland to Denver to Alton, Illinois, Hugh has spent decades simply showing up where God sends him, picking up the manna, and letting the kingdom grow from there.<br/><br/>This conversation is a masterclass in what it actually looks like to live as an everyday missionary. Hugh unpacks the difference between missional and incarnational, why business is often not a means to mission but the mission itself, and how hospitality through food and presence has opened more doors to the gospel than any program ever could.<br/>If you&apos;ve ever felt the pressure to build the church, convert people, or grow the kingdom on your own timeline — Hugh has a word for you. Chill out. Jesus said he would build his church. Your job is to walk with your eyes open and ask God to put bread on the trail.<br/>This one is for every son and daughter who wants to live sent — not just on Sundays, but wherever they live, work, and play.<br/><br/>⸻<br/><br/>Reflection Questions<br/>Where in your normal life are you already present that could become a mission field if you showed up with your eyes open?<br/>What would it look like to practice archaeology in your neighborhood, your workplace, or your community — digging around to find what&apos;s broken before crafting a response?<br/>If you left your neighborhood tomorrow, would anyone notice?

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In this episode of the Disciples Made Here podcast, Drew sits down with longtime pastor and Made to Flourish leader Tom Nelson to talk about what it really looks like to equip the saints for Monday. Tom shares the turning point that reshaped his pastoral paradigm, why “Sunday scorecards” can unintentionally miss the mission, and how the church flourishes when discipleship is built around intimacy with Jesus, integrity of heart, and fruitfulness in everyday life.<br/><br/>You’ll hear practical ways to close the Sunday-to-Monday gap, a framework Tom uses to help people interpret their work and calling through God’s bigger story, and why the marketplace has always been a primary place for kingdom movement. This conversation is an invitation to reimagine your Monday as worship, mission, and formation as you live sent where you live, work, and play.<br/><br/><br/>Reflection Questions<br/>• Where do you feel the biggest Sunday-to-Monday gap in your life right now?<br/>• Which threat do you resonate with more: Monday dualism or Monday deism?<br/>• What would it look like to reimagine your Monday as worship, mission, and formation this week?<br/><br/>⸻<br/><br/>Connect With Disciples Made Here<br/><br/>Instagram<br/><a href='https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqbWdjMTZYUGx0RnFidzRRcGtZNGFhb0xLMGxlUXxBQ3Jtc0tsTm5RTWJfWlEybGhGOGU0QUczOEtuRTBqOV9OZE9TQXVJekE5Y20xY005SmFGYlg1ZGNERDdXUWFiZTJRTDU2VWE0dVliYWhRMUUyaU9Pc1dGdE5nOUl3ZF9uQmstemxKdGc2c2lyTjJic1EtUFpYcw&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Fdisciplesmadehere%2F&amp;v=QjpTAbCk1G4'>https://www.instagram.com/disciplesma...</a><br/><br/>Facebook<br/><a href='https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqa2xURGQyYkZQQ0didVdIazVhVFZ2T2sycTNzQXxBQ3Jtc0ttS1YxYzNMSXlxcGlYdnk5SjY3eUhkMWdLWXFXRDBwMjUwcUtkNDlfdTBFalphRHhwaG5rUDFGSGpZTEIzLUdnRWhLN2dpUG5MalVqSWxCcEk3eHM3MkNsZnZOODJiVUNYajc5OHRuV1o1WVY4OWdWWQ&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fdisciplesmadehere&amp;v=QjpTAbCk1G4'>https://www.facebook.com/disciplesmad...</a><br/><br/>Website<br/><a href='https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&amp;redir_token=QUFFLUhqbmhWX1FiZ1BTQldIemc5NjJZWndDeFF0YUQ5UXxBQ3Jtc0ttbXF3SFVwTk5BYWxuRF9icWJRY1JPTGJhUG1xR2FyblNsMmQ4YXNxVHJHd19kUDEzN1dQUGdiRmExTHpsUXdTc3FUbndVTDV0cGR1R1ZOWEp0ZVZab3dpdzJTLWZMeXM1VGx0cG9OcXd4VEhlLWs3RQ&amp;q=https%3A%2F%2Fdisciplesmadehere.org%2F&amp;v=QjpTAbCk1G4'>https://disciplesmadehere.org/</a></p>]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[<p>Last episode, we asked a foundational question: What is a disciple? We looked at how Jesus defines discipleship through the three great relationships we see throughout Scripture, and we named the importance of having a clear target. If you have not listened yet, Episode 1 will give you key context for today.<br/><br/>In Episode 2, we peel back another layer and begin with something even more basic than calling: identity.<br/><br/>Our culture is constantly trying to define identity through achievement, personality, performance, or what we do. But the story of Scripture points us back to our Creator. Identity is not something we earn. It is something we receive. We were made by God, for God, and our deepest joy is found in being with Him.<br/><br/>From there, calling begins to make sense. Calling is not primarily your job title, your role, or your platform. It is who you are following. When identity is secure as sons and daughters of the King, sentness becomes a natural overflow. God works through ordinary people in ordinary places, and that is where disciples are made.<br/><br/>This episode also revisits the R cubed framework and addresses what happens when we lean hard into one or two relationships while neglecting the others. The invitation is simple, but it is not shallow. Follow Jesus with your whole life, with your head, heart, and hands.<br/><br/>In This Episode<br/>• Why identity must come before calling<br/>• How the Garden shapes our understanding of who we are<br/>• Calling as faithful following, not a job description<br/>• The danger of living 2 out of 3 relationships<br/>• Two reflection questions to help you take your next step<br/><br/>Follow Along the Journey with Us<br/>Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/disciplesmadehere/<br/>Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/disciplesmadehere<br/>Website: https://vintagegrace.org/dmhpodcast<br/>Shownotes: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/19Bp99_53X7eyfeDAJx38Ym2_you8zsqK?usp=sharing</p>]]></description>

Follow Jesus with your whole life, with your head, heart, and hands.<br/><br/>In This Episode<br/>• Why identity must come before calling<br/>• How the Garden shapes our understanding of who we are<br/>• Calling as faithful following, not a job description<br/>• The danger of living 2 out of 3 relationships<br/>• Two reflection questions to help you take your next step<br/><br/>Follow Along the Journey with Us<br/>Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/disciplesmadehere/<br/>Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/disciplesmadehere<br/>Website: https://vintagegrace.org/dmhpodcast<br/>Shownotes: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/19Bp99_53X7eyfeDAJx38Ym2_you8zsqK?usp=sharing</p>]]></content:encoded>

    <description><![CDATA[<p>In this first episode of the Disciples Made Here Podcast, Drew Sodestrom and Heather Hodson begin unpacking one of the most important and often misunderstood questions in the Christian life: What is a disciple?<br/><br/>Many followers of Jesus work hard, stay busy, and remain deeply committed, yet still feel unsure whether they are aiming at the right thing. In this conversation, Drew and Heather challenge the idea that discipleship is about church attendance, programs, or religious activity. Instead, they invite us back to the simple and demanding call of Jesus: follow Me.<br/><br/>Drawing from Scripture, personal stories, and years of pastoral experience, this episode explores how unclear definitions can lead to misplaced effort. When we misunderstand the mission, we may work hard but toward the wrong goal. Jesus never told His followers to make churchgoers. He invited them into a relational journey that transforms who we are and how we live.<br/><br/>You will also hear the foundation of how discipleship is understood at Vintage Grace through the lens of three intersecting relationships. A deepening relationship with God, life changing relationships with other believers, and engaging relationships with those yet to believe. This framework shapes everything that follows in the podcast and gives listeners a clear target for growth.<br/><br/>In This Episode<br/>• Why defining discipleship matters<br/>• How good effort can still miss the mission<br/>• The relational heart of following Jesus<br/>• Simple reflection questions to assess your own journey<br/><br/>As the episode closes, lets reflect personally and prepare for the next conversation, where this definition will continue to be built out in practical ways.<br/><br/>Follow the Journey with Us<br/>Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/disciplesmadehere/<br/>Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/disciplesmadehere<br/>Website: https://vintagegrace.org/dmhpodcast<br/>Shownotes: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/12jB7McnPlePejtYI5l3fXmo-vNnkmYXL?usp=drive_link</p>]]></description>
