Tap HERE In this episode, Jayce and James explore how the FACT framework (Faithful, Available, Contagious, Teachable) serves as both a barometer for disciple readiness and a personal examination tool for those leading others toward Christ. Have you ever wondered what truly makes someone ready to be a disciple-maker? This episode dives deep into the first half of the powerful FACT framework – Faithful and Available – that serves as both a barometer for discipleship readiness and a personal examination tool for spiritual growth. • Faithfulness includes alignment with Church teaching, honest acknowledgment of struggles, and consistent striving toward holiness • Being faithful requires humility and obedience rather than elevating personal opinions above Church teaching • True availability doesn't mean an empty calendar but rather a heart oriented toward what truly matters • Availability means being present in the moment, putting down phones, and prioritizing prayer despite competing demands • Our availability or lack thereof reveals "who we are bowing to" - what we truly worship • A "schedule conversion" may be necessary if we're too busy for prayer and silence • Seeking counsel from trusted friends provides essential perspective on our blind spots • Making even small adjustments can significantly align our lives more closely with Christ's call ************ Links and other stuff from the show: Pastoral Letter, "On the Unity of the Body and Soul:" archokc.org/pastoral-letters Red Dirt Catholics Email Address: reddirtcatholics@archokc.org The Book "From Christendom to Apostolic Mission" (Digital and Print): Amazon The Social Dilemma: https://www.netflix.com/title/81254224 Daily Examen Prayer: https://bit.ly/309As8z Lectio Divina How-To: https://bit.ly/3fp8UTa
