How Introverts and Extroverts Shape a Family on Mission

The difference between introverts and extroverts is one of the most misunderstood aspects of personality. So many people get it wrong, leading to myths and assumptions that just don’t hold up.

In this episode of the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we’re setting the record straight. We’ll break down the biggest misconceptions and uncover how both introverts and extroverts play a vital role in living together as a family on mission.

The truth is, we all have moments when we crave solitude and quiet—Jesus certainly did. And at times, even the most introverted among us step into social settings and engage with others—just like Jesus often did. Understanding this balance is key to thriving together.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

  • How introversion has nothing to do with “being shy”
  • Why extroverts don’t always have to be the life of the party
  • How spouses that are on opposite ends of this can better understand each other
  • Ways culture has taught us to hide our self-love behind these distinctions
  • Why we need each other to be more fully like Jesus and make disciples

7 Evangelism Mistakes You’re Probably Making

Evangelism has almost become a dirty word in our culture. Sadly, it’s not all that different in many churches. We either go all-in with enthusiasm only to find that most people aren’t interested, or we’ve quietly given up on it altogether. But what if we’re missing the heart of evangelism?

In this episode, we’ll define what true biblical evangelism is (and what it’s not) while uncovering the 7 worst evangelism mistakes Christians make today.

Even when we’re confident in our faith and what the Bible teaches, how we communicate and carry ourselves speaks volumes about who God is. God isn’t pushy—he’s patient. He’s gentle, loving, and always available. Our approach to evangelism should reflect that same heart.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

  • What the Bible actually teaches about evangelism.
  • Are all Christians called to be evangelists?
  • Why so many believers are looking for ways to “opt out” of evangelizing.
  • The 7 biggest evangelism mistakes today—and a better way forward.

Men’s & Women’s Ministry or Family Discipleship?

Men’s and women’s ministries have been separated in the church for years. But the church is a family. And when we disciple together, as a family in community, we experience deeper discipleship in every area of life.

In this episode of the Everyday Disciple Podcast, Caesar is joined by his wife Tina, and their friend and fellow disciple-maker, Barb Terry. He gets their perspective on women and discipleship. Are there differences? We find out that the answer is both “yes” and “no”.

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

  • Why the church has traditionally separated men and women.
  • The importance of women finding their “sisterhood” within community.
  • Can women be effectively discipled by men?
  • Why understanding our gospel identity leads to freedom for both women and men.

Control, Approval, Comfort, Power. Why We Chase False Gods

We all have hidden idols—big and small. An idol is anything that takes God’s place in your heart, absorbs your imagination, or promises what only He can give.

This week on the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we’re tackling the four root idols: control, approval, comfort, and power. You’ll learn how to identify and destroy them in your life.

Idols today aren’t statues or totems—they’re far more subtle. Listen when your heart says, “If I just had that, then my life would have meaning… then I’d feel valuable, significant, or secure.”

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

  • A clear, practical definition of what idols look like in our lives.
  • The four root idols that fuel all forms of false worship.
  • Key emotional triggers that reveal the idols controlling us.
  • How these idols steal our worship and devotion from God.

Jesus Didn’t Argue–Why Should We?

One of the biggest reasons Christians hesitate to talk about their faith is the fear of sounding weird or being hit with tough questions they can’t answer. Others feel like they have to “win” people over, and if they don’t, they’ve somehow failed.

This week on the Everyday Disciple Podcast, we’ll unpack why treating evangelism like a spiritual tug-of-war isn’t the way to go. In fact, apologetics often makes for poor evangelism—no one has ever been “argued” into the Kingdom!

In This Episode You’ll Learn:

  • A clear understanding of apologetics and the true purpose of evangelism
  • Two distinct approaches to starting faith conversations
  • The real value of apologetics within Christian communities
  • Why Jesus didn’t rely on tricks, tactics, or arguments to reveal his Father
