This week, Jake and Bob are joined by John Eldredge, president of Wild at Heart , to discuss what authentic discipleship looks like in a distracted digital age. They explore the subtle ways constant connectivity and information overload can erode our spiritual focus, hinder intimacy with God, and ultimately fragment our souls. John also shares stories and insights from his own journey, highlights how unchecked busyness can mask deeper wounds or spiritual emptiness, and encourages listeners, with practical advice, to seek genuine communion with Jesus for true restoration. Key Points: A true disciple is someone who has fallen in love with Jesus. This love sustains their commitment to following His commands The internet conditions people against intimacy with God. While the internet is not always be, it is important to recognize its impact on your spiritual life Intimacy with God requires intentionality and focus, especially when it comes to our phones and computers Mystery and wonder have been twisted into something negative. In reality, mystery and wonder are a beautiful part of spiritual life Jesus actively seeks to heal each fragmented part of yourself and continually invites you deeper into relationship with Him Resources: Wild at Heart Website Wild at Heart by John Eldredge Experience Jesus.
