Ever wondered what the role of spiritual leadership is in a relationship? Or how to practice discipleship?

This is a question SO many Christians contemplate in dating (and if you don’t, YOU SHOULD BE!).

Matthew Ayers is a founding member, treasurer and executive board member of Vintage Church in LA. Outside of his involvement at the church, Matthew manages the investments of a handful of very wealthy families at Alex Brown. Matt lives in west Los Angeles with his wife, Stephanie and his two daughters, Riley and Dylan.

A few years ago Kait heard Matt speak on discipleship at their yearly church retreat, and she was blown away by his input, and convictions. Soon after, Kait tracked him down at a leadership event their church was throwing and asked him follow up questions. Since then Kait has gotten to know both him and his wife, Steph, and have grown to love both of them in how they do marriage and how them mentor and disciple others.

Today Matt and Kait dive into the conversation of discipleship and spiritual leadership, and they talk about how that applies to men specifically in dating relationships. It’s an incredibly rich discussion. They even touch on gender roles and leadership at the end which is dynamite, so you will want to make sure you stay till the end to hear what they discuss!

Some themes of today’s episode:
-Why spiritual leadership is important for men
-How to call men up to be spiritual leaders
-Being a spiritual leader in singleness
-Essential steps to discipleship
-The importance of a “Board of Advisors”
-Women and leadership
-Some insight on gender roles.

PS. Did y’all know that Kait actually offers 1 on 1 relationship coaching?

Doing this podcast is PHENOMENAL, and we deeply hope it encourages you, but we are also aware that every person’s dating history, and personal life history is different… which means that not one set of dating advice or encouragement can apply to everyone.

As such, it is Kait's honor and joy to walk alongside of you in your journey to help you create a VISION for your life in relationships as it comes to God, yourself, and lastly in dating.
