by Daron Butler
The Natives Follow Jesus podcast recognizes that following Jesus as Native American / First Nation disciples is getting more and more challenging. You don’t have to follow Jesus all alone. Join me every week where you can find positive and encouraging content as you seek to follow Jesus as best as you can. Daron Butler is the host of this weekly show. Daron is a full-blooded Navajo. His Navajo family are followers of Jesus spanning three generations. He has served as a pastor in the local church and serves as Hospice Chaplain in his community presently. He has over 30 years experience in serving many people groups. Episode segments will highlight native cultural insights, devotions from the Bible, prayer for you as you follow Jesus among your own people and amid the cultures of the world, and spotlighting indigenous followers of Jesus who are seeking to be a mission force. There will be bonus episodes where Daron will interview other Natives who are following Jesus. You will gain perspective from their personal journey and you will find inspiration to keep following Jesus. Daron intends to offer you insight, inspiration, and community on your spiritual journey as you follow Jesus. Why this podcast? I find that those who follow Jesus as a Native American or First Nations disciple span a wide spectrum of locations. Some are from the USA and others are from CANADA. You may be someone who is from the reservation (or reserve) or from the city. You might be full-blooded or part-blooded. You may have started following Jesus while immersed in your native culture or you found Jesus yet are curious about your native background. You may be someone who speaks your native language fluently or one who can’t say any words in the tongue of your ancestors. You may have many questions unanswered. Daron invites you to join him on your spiritual quest to follow Jesus. He wants to connect with you, offer a prayer for you, and to suggest ways for you to keep following Jesus as a Native person. "Wherever you are, God sees you. You are NOT alone! Keep following Jesus!"

SHOW NOTES:Sometimes our grandparents and elders helped us recognize moments of peace, balance, and hope. Their words, their prayers, their patience, and the way they lived remind us that God is still at work in our lives. Through Jesus, we can find peace in the middle of trouble, hope in seasons of loss, and the strength to keep walking in beauty.God doesn't ask you to pretend life is perfect. He invites you to bring your brokenness to Jesus, receive His peace, and help others find hope along the way.LINKS + RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE:Sign up for monthly newsletter.

SHOW NOTES:Our elders taught us that character matters. They ideally showed us how to love people, keep our word, be patient, help others, and remain faithful through hard times. But, oftentimes, they fell short. Sometimes they reflected low character or a mean character. As followers of Jesus, you can discover that godly qualities can develop in you with the help of the Holy Spirit. You can begin a new legacy of godly character for those who follow behind you. The next generation can see godly character in you as you follow Jesus and surrender to God, the Holy Spirit. LINKS + RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE:Sign up for monthly newsletter.

SHOW NOTES:Jesus didn’t live in a hurry. He walked, listened, stopped, rested, prayed, and paid attention to people. Following Jesus means learning that we don’t have to live at the pace of a culture that constantly tells us to hurry.

SHOW NOTES:Walking in Beauty with Jesus does not mean living in a perfect world. It means learning to walk with Jesus, with others, and through life faithfully--even when life is broken. Life does not always stay in harmony and peace. There are times when relationships are broken, families hurt, communities struggle, and our own hearts become weighted down and tired. Following Jesus does not remove you from those realities. Jesus can teach you to walk through them. He will walk through them with you. The goal is not to pretend everything is beautiful. The goal is to learn how to walk in beauty even when the world around us isn't beautiful. LINKS + RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE:Sign up for monthly newsletter.
