678 Why Being With Jesus Comes Before Doing

Wednesday, January 7th: In a culture driven by productivity and performance, it’s easy to assume that faith is measured by what we do for God. But Jesus consistently reversed that order. Before sending his disciples out, he called them to be with him. In this episode of The Daily Grind, we explore why presence always comes before action in the life of discipleship. Being with Jesus forms our character, reshapes our desires, and anchors our lives in God’s reality. Without presence, doing becomes exhausting and faith turns into performance. Drawing from The Divine Conspiracy and The Great Omission, this episode invites listeners to rediscover discipleship as a life rooted in communion, not constant activity. True transformation flows from time spent with Jesus, not merely effort spent for him.
