Join in as Josh, Stephen, Tyler and Jonathan talk about what it looks like to be a disciple of Christ and pursue Him. In the episode, we talk about 

• Qualities and characteristics that exemplify Christ
• How to "Carry your Cross"
• Putting Christ first
• Becoming more Christlike
• And... Why we pursue Christ

Much of our discussion comes after talking about Matthew when it says "Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness". It is difficult in a self-centered world to focus on Christ and HIs plan for our lives. To do that, without worry is tough. We want to encourage you to look more like Jesus each day for that is what God has called us toward. 

After our session, we talked about some people, books, and influences that helped shape us to who we are today in our faith walks. We want to encourage you to find those people in your life and give back to them by saying thank you. Look around you and bring people along that are beginning their walks or who are questioning what it means to walk with Christ.

Here are some of the influences we discussed:

• Podcasts about Christ Centered Relationships
• Former pastors we have sat under in College or our church backgrounds
• Andy Stanley, Matt Chandler, Chris Hodges, Louie Giglio, John Piper were a few pastors mentioned by name
• Our parents and the Godly influence we were placed in under them
• Our wives example to us when they seek God's word - whether in the morning or in a small group together
• Professors and Campus ministers
• Groups we have been a part of in churches and in community
• Desiring God Website
