What if you knew Jesus was coming back by the end of this week? Would He find you living for His purposes—or mostly pursuing your own?

On this episode of The Steve Marston Show, Steve asks a challenging discipleship question: Are you becoming the follower of Jesus that He has called you to be? Steve shares part of his own story of pursuing a career dream, watching it fall apart, and eventually realizing that surrendering his plans to God opened the door to what God actually wanted him to do.

We also hear your Sunday Morning Takeaways, including lessons about standing firm in faith, making your life count, walking in God’s will, the parable of the sower, and Paul’s emotional farewell to the Ephesian elders in Acts 20.

Then Steve talks with Emmanuel Osire, a national speaker for Operation Christmas Child, who received an Operation Christmas Child shoebox as a boy growing up in Uganda. During a season of poverty, scarcity, and family hardship, that simple gift became a powerful reminder to Emmanuel that God knew him, loved him, and had not abandoned him. Today, he travels the United States sharing how something as simple as a shoebox can make an eternal difference in a child's life.

Plus, Steve shares the remarkable story of a Bible page recovered from the wreckage of Ground Zero, looks at Kirk Cameron's biblical five-part test for evaluating claims of modern-day apostles and spiritual leaders, delivers the Dad Joke of the Day, and introduces this week's Faith Between Our Ears verse: Isaiah 53:5.

The Steve Marston Show is a daily Christian radio show and podcast helping you live more like Jesus through biblical teaching, Christian discipleship, faith and culture conversations, interviews, encouragement, and a little fun along the way.
