Episode 105: Who's Kingdom are we Building?

In this compelling episode of the Eyes on Jesus Podcast, Drew and Tim tackle the growing tension between influence and authenticity in the digital age. In a time when anyone can start a ministry page, launch a podcast, or publish devotionals with the click of a button, how do we keep our hearts anchored in Jesus instead of chasing platforms?

Drew and Tim reflect on the surge of online Christian content creators—many with good intentions—but ask the hard questions: Are we being led by the Spirit, or by trends? Are we building God's Kingdom, or simply drawing attention to ourselves?

They explore how the desire to influence can easily outpace the call to be faithful, and why real leadership must be grounded in humility, spiritual depth, and community accountability.

Whether you're a church leader, content creator, or just feeling overwhelmed by the flood of Christian voices online, this episode will help you recenter your focus on what really matters: walking daily with Christ and living a life that points to Him—not ourselves.

✨ Highlights & Takeaways:

Platform vs. Preparation: Why not everyone is called to teach—and how Paul modeled patience and maturity before influence.

Social Media Creep: The ease of creating Christian content can dilute depth; discernment is more crucial than ever.

Craig Groeschel as a Model: Real influence flows from long-term obedience, not instant visibility.

Quiet Faithfulness Matters: Celebrating the “unseen” leaders who love, serve, and disciple without a following.

Avoiding the Spotlight Trap: Influence isn't a shortcut to maturity. Let God refine you before you lead others.

The Role of Accountability: Why every Christian—especially those with platforms—needs mentors and truth-tellers in their lives.
