    Jesus tells us the cost of discipleship and the values we must hold to follow Him.

Variations of them can all be found on the internet, even on this site). Jesus addresses the crowd to share with them the values ...read more

    A look at those who followed Jesus and why people today still do

    Intro: I love reading the Bible in story form. Taking each story, paragraph by paragraph, and trying to put myself in the scenes. I have always loved to read the Word of God like I am actually there, to try to soak up the entire experience of every event. That may not be theologically gratifying to ...read more

    Jesus calls us to be fishers of men, to follow him. He doesn't call us to lives of safety, but of salvation.

    This story that we have in the gospel reading for today is one that makes me smile because I feel like I know exactly what Simon is thinking here in this moment. I have had days like this fishing. Days where I’ve been out for hours and hours and there’s just nothing. And we tried everything, ...read more

    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. Jesus does not candy coat the calling of the ministry. He warns us up front that there is a ...read more
