Like Samuel and Eli, we don't always initially recognize God's Ring Tone, but God is calling to us, and our job is to listen.

It Is Going To Cost You Something

Contributed by Craig Benner on Aug 14, 2013

There are no free rides in the calling of God. One must be decided and determined to get on board and pay the fare.

It is going to cost something. Luke 9:57-62 Jesus and the disciples have left Samaria in route to Jerusalem. 2 Men sought to follow Jesus of their own accord. 1 Man was asked to Jesus to follow him.

The Call To Discipleship Part 1: Not For The Faint-Hearted Series

Contributed by Doug Fannon on Aug 9, 2021

No where in Scripture does it say that being a disciple of Jesus will be easy. All Scripture references are from the NASB.

In this sin sick world we live in, the prevailing attitude is “What’s in it for me?” Even in the church, people choose their church as to what will benefit me the most. Where can I get my needs met.

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Mar 29, 2025
