Deepen with Pastor Joby Martin

Following Jesus isn’t about comfort— it’s about surrender.

In this episode of Deepen, we explore the tension between fear and faith, the cost of truly following Jesus, and what it looks like to trust Him in the middle of life’s storms. Jesus isn’t an add-on to our plans. He is Lord and He calls us to put Him first.

Faith doesn’t remove difficulty, but it anchors us in the One who has authority over every storm. When fear leads, we become paralyzed. When faith leads, we move forward with trust, courage, and obedience.

No matter what you’re facing, Jesus invites you to follow Him fully, even when it costs everything.

In today's episode, we dive deeper into Pastor Joby's sermon on Matthew 7:15-29. How can you be sure you are saved? It's not by doing enough religious activity. Only through trusting in the finished work of Jesus can we have assurance. 

As Jesus closes out the Sermon on the Mount, He warns us about following false prophets or building our life on anything other than Him. We will only weather the storms of life when Jesus is the center and the bedrock on which we build.

What did Jesus really mean when He said, “Judge not”? In this episode of Deepen, Pastor Joby Martin, Pastor Britt and Ali Parsons unpack Matthew 7 and the difference between discernment and a judgmental spirit. They talk about why “only God can judge me” can be such a dangerous mindset, how judgment steals our joy, why we’re called to pray for people instead of picking them apart and what it looks like to live with humility, repentance, and grace. 

If you’ve ever struggled with comparison, criticism, or trying to fix everyone around you, this conversation is a powerful reminder that true freedom and joy are found not in judging others, but in surrendering fully to Jesus.

What do you want out of life? Do you want people to be impressed by how holy you seem to be? In today’s episode of Deepen, Pastor Joby expounds on Matthew 6:1-18 and explains Jesus’ warning against being a “performer” of righteous deeds. Jesus wants us to live to please God and to pursue the reward that He offers through our giving, our praying, and our fasting: the gift of himself.

“If we consider the unblushing promises of reward … promised in the Gospels, it would seem that our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at sea. We are far too easily pleased.” - C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory
