EP 79: Becoming a Warrior Disciple with Scott Roberts

When you hear the word "warrior," what comes to mind?

Maybe the movie Gladiator?

The WWF's Ultimate Warrior?

The latest UFC champion?

Now, when you hear the word "disciple," what do you think of?

Something very different? Maybe something incompatible with the first word?

But what if these two terms could fit together?

Our guest on this episode believes the words "warrior disciple" go hand in hand for the man following Christ, and, in fact, can be a catalyst for seeing men's lives transformed by the Gospel.

Scott Roberts is a dynamic Christian leader and writer. He is the author of the men's ministry book Warrior Disciple. Scott is passionate about empowering men to live boldly and fearlessly for the Lord Jesus Christ. He is also a devotional and article writer for Impactus. As a church elder, teacher, and men's ministry leader, Scott is dedicated to helping men grow in their faith and embrace their calling as disciples of Christ, and he's developed a great new resource to do just that.

In this podcast, Dean and Scott talk about:

• What a "warrior disciple" is and why the term is so important
• The new men's discipleship book Warrior Disciple and how it can be a crucial and intentional tool for ministry to men
• How men can stand guard against the forces of the enemy and the world
• Ways to engage men in the church to step up into their God-given roles
• How Scripture informs a man's spiritual journey
• The role that discipline plays in a man's faith, marriage/singleness, fatherhood, career, and church life
• How love, strength, and courage work together in the life of a man
• Advice for pastors and men's ministry leaders on how to build an intentional model of discipleship for their men
