What does it actually mean to make disciples—not just attend church, consume Christian content, or call ourselves followers of Jesus?
In this episode of The Raw Christian Men’s Podcast, we sit down with David Small, author of *Nameless Faceless People: Ten Years With The Free Burma Rangers* and founder of the Jungle Discipleship School, for a powerful conversation about what biblical discipleship looks like when it moves beyond theory and becomes a way of life.
Jesus didn’t simply call us to believe. He called us to follow Him, become more like Him, and make disciples who make disciples.
David shares lessons shaped by years of ministry, missions, hardship, leadership, and firsthand experience serving alongside believers in some of the most challenging environments in the world. We talk about the difference between simply gaining biblical knowledge and actually living as a disciple of Christ—and why multiplication should be at the heart of the Christian life.
In this episode, we discuss:
• What biblical discipleship really looks like
• Why Christians are called to make disciples, not just converts
• The difference between church attendance and following Jesus
• Why discipleship requires relationships, sacrifice, and obedience
• How mature believers can intentionally invest in others
• Developing leaders who go on to disciple others
• Lessons David learned through the Free Burma Rangers
• The mission behind the Jungle Discipleship School
• Why the Great Commission applies to every Christian
• How ordinary believers can create a multiplying impact for the Kingdom of God
Discipleship was never meant to stop with us.
Someone invests in you. You grow in Christ. You invest in someone else. They begin discipling others—and the impact continues outward.
That is how disciples make disciples.
Whether you're a Christian man wanting to grow deeper in your faith, a church leader looking to build a stronger discipleship culture, or simply wondering how to live out the Great Commission in everyday life, this conversation will challenge you to move from being merely a consumer of Christianity to an active disciple of Jesus Christ.
