Humble Hearts, Open Doors — And Changed Many Lives | Ep. 5

Because of a right heart and a humble attitude, they saw doors open that had never opened before. Over the last few years, around 60 people have been baptized — many of them in a simple bathtub — and many more lives have been transformed. This is not about taking over churches. It’s about serving, loving, and letting fruit grow over time. You don’t want to miss this story.Follow Torben's Story here:TorbenSondergaard.comLive the Life of a Disciple of Jesus:TheLastReformation.com

Most Christians believe in God. But how many truly know Him? In this episode, we talk about the difference between: • Knowing about God • And actually knowing God There is a huge difference between theology and intimacy. Between information and relationship. Between correct doctrine and walking with the Holy Spirit. 📖 John 17:3 — “This is eternal life: that they know You…” Jesus didn’t say, “I never heard about you.” He said, “I never knew you.” That is relational language. In this episode, I’m joined by my friend Olivier (France/Canada), currently visiting our school in Mexico. Together we talk about: 🔥 What biblical “knowing” really means 🔥 How to move from head knowledge to heart reality 🔥 Practical ways to cultivate intimacy with God 🔥 A word to pastors and leaders 🔥 Why Acts Christianity was relational If you want more than religion… If you want real life with God… This episode is for you. Follow Torben's Story here:TorbenSondergaard.comLive the Life of a Disciple of Jesus:TheLastReformation.com

There is a lot happening in the church right now. Sin is being exposed. Well-known ministers are being revealed to have lived double lives. Videos are coming out that are shaking many people. Today we talk about that — but we also go deeper. Not just what is happening, but why. What is the real issue beneath the surface? And what is it that very few are talking about? In this episode of the Disciple Makers Podcast, I’m joined by my close friend Jon. We speak honestly about sin in the church, our responsibility as believers, and what Scripture actually says about judging inside the church — not the world. This is not a polished studio conversation. I’m on the road. This is real life. Real ministry. Real discipleship. Follow Torben's Story here:TorbenSondergaard.comLive the Life of a Disciple of Jesus:TheLastReformation.com

What does it really mean to be “free indeed”?Jesus said:“So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.” (John 8:36)Yet many believers truly love Jesus—yet they are still bound.They want to live free, but they keep struggling with the same sin again and again.In Episode 2 of the Disciple Makers Podcast, we talk about a truth many avoid:👉 A half gospel cannot produce real freedom.In this episode: • We unpack John 8:31–36 and what Jesus meant by true freedom • We address the lie that “we will always be sinners” • We reject both extremes: endless bondage and sinless perfection • We share Joah’s powerful testimony—from hidden struggle to real freedom • We speak directly to pastors and leaders about our responsibility • We show how repentance, baptism, discipleship, and obedience belong togetherThis is not about condemnation.This is about freedom.And to be clear: we do not preach sinless perfection.We preach freedom from being slaves to sin.Movements begin with the right seed.If the seed is wrong, the fruit will be wrong.Follow Torben's Story here:TorbenSondergaard.comLive the Life of a Disciple of Jesus:TheLastReformation.com

Many believers have knowledge—but very little fruit. Jesus said the Father is glorified when we bear much fruit (John 15). In this first episode of the Disciple Makers Podcast, we talk about the two kinds of fruit the Bible points to: ✅ Fruit of the Spirit (character & holiness) ✅ Fruit of making disciples (obedience, multiplication, and seeing lives transformed) This is not a fancy studio—we’re on the road—but the message is real and practical. In this episode, Torben Søndergaard sits down with Olivier Buadès to share testimony, breakthrough, and simple steps you can start doing this week to become a fruitful disciple who glorifies the Father. We also take time to speak directly to pastors and leaders about moving from church activity to a real disciple-making culture—training believers to do the Word, not only hear it. In this episode: • Why Jesus doesn’t just want “fruit”—He wants much fruit • The two kinds of fruit many Christians confuse (or miss) • Why comparison kills fruitfulness (and what to do instead) • Olivier’s testimony: from addiction to repentance, freedom, and disciple-making • Practical steps to begin seeing fruit in everyday life • A message to pastors/leaders: a culture shift from teaching-only to training & obedience Key Scriptures: John 15 • Galatians 5 • Mark 4 • John 20 • Matthew 28 ⸻ 🔔 Subscribe & share If this blesses you, subscribe, share it with someone, and help us get this out. Follow Torben's Story here:TorbenSondergaard.comLive the Life of a Disciple of Jesus:TheLastReformation.com

Many churches today focus on meetings but often miss the life of discipleship that Jesus called us to. The Church Plus Vision is not about stopping Sunday gatherings but about adding the missing elements that bring transformation. By making room for testimonies, obedience to the Word, and practical disciple-making, the DNA of the church can change. In this lesson, you will discover how to practically add these elements and see your church (or fellowship) become a living, multiplying body that raises up disciples. Follow Torben's Story here:TorbenSondergaard.comLive the Life of a Disciple of Jesus:TheLastReformation.com

Christ Himself gave apostles, prophets, evangelists, shepherds, and teachers—not as titles, but as gifts to equip His body. These gifts are not for a few “special” leaders but for the growth and unity of the whole church. In this lesson, you will discover the true purpose of the five-fold ministry, how it works in practice, and why every gift is needed for the church to become mature and fruitful.Follow Torben's Story here:TorbenSondergaard.comLive the Life of a Disciple of Jesus:TheLastReformation.com

We are born again as spiritual infants, but we should not remain that way. With the right food at the right time, we can grow quickly—from infants, to young disciples, to mature parents who raise up the next generation. In this lesson, you will discover the different spiritual levels, why it is important to recognize them, and how to help people grow from one stage to the next. This understanding is vital if we want to see true multiplication.Follow Torben's Story here:TorbenSondergaard.comLive the Life of a Disciple of Jesus:TheLastReformation.com

Jesus gave us the perfect model. He spent time with the Father, reached the one, mentored the three, discipled the twelve, empowered the 120, and touched the multitudes. If we leave out any part of His model, we will miss the fullness of what God wants to do through us. TLR Together: https://thelastreformation.com/together/Follow Torben's Story here:TorbenSondergaard.comLive the Life of a Disciple of Jesus:TheLastReformation.com

The right seed in the right ground will not produce without doing the Word. Listening alone, without action, brings no transformation. It is the doing of the Word that makes the seed grow into what it was created to be. This is an important lesson for every pastor and leader: no one can do this alone, which is why God has given us the five-fold ministry.Follow Torben's Story here:TorbenSondergaard.comLive the Life of a Disciple of Jesus:TheLastReformation.com
