In the world of disciple-making, "watching" is a bad word. We don't watch—we engage.

In this episode of this powerful series, Thomas Clark sits down with his long-time friend and "mission partner," Ruth Price. At 77 years young, Ruth is a living testimony that God’s call on your life doesn't have a retirement date. Operating out of the historical Austin neighborhood in Chicago, Ruth shares how she transitioned from simply being a resident to becoming a missional, incarnational presence on her block.

In this episode, we explore:

• The Incarnational Impulse: What it means to be "enfleshed" with Christ in your first place—the neighborhood where you live.
• Breaking the "Castle" Mentality: Moving from seeing our homes as private fortresses to viewing them as outposts for the Kingdom.
• Technology as a Tool for Peace: How Ruth uses email and social media to connect over 80 neighbors, proving that tech is only as "good" or "evil" as the purpose behind it.
• Earning the Right to be Heard: The journey of inviting people into your life until they trust you enough to invite you into theirs.

Every problem is a discipleship problem, and Christ transforms culture through His followers. Are you ready to stop waving from your car and start doing a "deep dive" into the lives of the people around you?
