  • Converts Without Disciples | What Happens When Growth Matters More Than Depth?

    Converts Without Disciples | What Happens When Growth Matters More Than Depth?
    Feb 23 2026
    What if people aren’t walking away from Jesus… What if they’re walking away from a version of Him that was never deep enough to carry them through a storm? In this episode of The Uncommon Christian, Jon Ellis tackles a sobering question: What did casual Christianity produce? When decisions outpace discipleship… When attendance outpaces obedience… When growth outpaces depth… Faith may look strong, until pressure hits. Through John 6, Matthew 13, cultural realities, revival at Southeastern University, and the taproot analogy, this episode exposes why shallow faith collapses under weight, and how rooted faith endures. This is not an attack on the church. It’s a call to build deeper. If you’ve ever wondered: ● Why so many believers deconstruct under pressure ● Why leadership burnout feels epidemic ● Why emotional faith doesn’t survive suffering ● How to build endurance instead of excitement This episode is for you. Because shallow faith won’t survive what’s coming. But rooted faith will. What if people aren’t walking away from Jesus, but from a version of Him that can’t carry them through a storm? In UNC025, Jon Ellis exposes what happens when churches grow wide but not deep. Through John 6, Matthew 13, and real cultural pressure, this episode reveals why shallow faith collapses, and how rooted faith endures. Moments don’t create endurance. Depth does.

  • How Casual Christianity Became Normal - When Decision Replaced Discipleship

    How Casual Christianity Became Normal - When Decision Replaced Discipleship
    Feb 15 2026
    How did Christianity become this casual? How did a faith that once required surrender turn into something that rarely disrupts us? In this episode, Jon Ellis traces the subtle shift that took place in modern American Christianity; a shift from discipleship to decisions, from formation to momentary response, from surrender to convenience. This isn’t an attack on evangelism. It’s not criticism of church growth. It’s a call back to biblical discipleship. Jesus never hid the cost. He clarified it. When the cost of following Him isn’t explained clearly, faith feels confusing. Shallow roots develop. Comfort becomes assumed. And casual Christianity slowly becomes normal. In this episode, Jon explores: • How altar-call culture unintentionally shifted the focus from discipleship to decision • Why unexplained cost creates fragile faith • How cultural Christianity replaces covenant obedience • What Jesus actually meant when He said, “Count the cost” • And how to return to true, Spirit-led discipleship If your faith has felt heavier lately, this may not mean something is wrong. It may mean you’re finally encountering the part of discipleship that trains you. Depth is still available. Uncommon faith is still possible. And surrender is still the way forward. How did Christianity become this casual? In this episode of The Uncommon Christian Podcast, Jon Ellis explores the subtle shift from discipleship to decisions, and why so many believers were taught how to start faith but not how to sustain it. Jesus never lowered the standard. If your faith feels heavier than expected, this episode will help you understand why, and how to return to true, Spirit-led discipleship.

  • Faithful But Exhausted. Why Tired Doesn't Mean You're Failing.

    Faithful But Exhausted. Why Tired Doesn't Mean You're Failing.
    Feb 8 2026
    Faithful doesn’t always feel peaceful. Sometimes it feels heavy. In this episode of The Uncommon Christian Podcast, Jon Ellis speaks directly to believers who haven’t quit, haven’t compromised, and haven’t walked away, but are tired in a way rest alone doesn’t fix. This conversation reframes weariness through Scripture, not shame. You’ll learn the difference between burnout and betrayal, why growing weary doesn’t mean you’re failing, and how God responds to faithful exhaustion with care, not condemnation. Drawing from Galatians 6, Isaiah 40, 1 Kings 19, Mark 6, Hebrews 12, and Romans 8, this episode offers clarity, permission to rest without quitting, and reassurance that endurance seasons are often evidence of real faith. If following Jesus feels heavier than you expected, this episode will help you understand why, and remind you that you’re not behind, broken, or disqualified. You may simply be faithful… and exhausted. You’re not weak. You’re not broken. You’re tired. In this episode, Jon Ellis speaks to believers who are still faithful but worn down, helping you discern the difference between burnout and betrayal, rest without quitting, and silence the voice of condemnation. A steady, Scripture-rooted reminder that weariness doesn’t mean failure, and God strengthens those who stay. #FaithfulButExhausted, #TheUncommonChristian, #ChristianPodcast, #EnduranceFaith, #SpiritualWeariness, #Bible, #Christian, #Romans8, #Galatians6, #StayFaithful, #SpiritLedLife, #ChristianEncouragement, #Jesus, #HolySpirit
