    Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Sep 27, 2011
     | 5,831 views

    When Jesus speaks about counting the cost to be his disciple he made it clear that following him would cost us our life of ease, our money and our time.

    Contributed by Wayne Mock on Feb 4, 2011
     | 7,080 views

    Following Christ is not always easy, however it must always be the highest priority.

    There are those who want to avoid all that is difficult. Some look for the easiest way. Some seek that which will bring less challenge or less hardship. The US Marine Corps takes pride in having a far different attitude. On the US Marine Corps website are these words under eligibility, “Our ...read more

    Jesus paid the price for our lives. We must bear the Cost of Following Him.

    The Cost of Discipleship-The price is what you pay initially- The Cost is what comes later. You pay a price for a piano & music lessons. The cost is the hours of practice and work and rehearsal.

    Jesus Is Number One

    Jesus does not promise us material wealth if we follow him, but he promises us a wealth beyond anything we can dream of in terms of material goods. His wealth is the wealth of the Holy Spirit and the wealth of heaven. God and Christ are willing to share.

    I relied heavily on SermonCentral contributor Larry Sarver's sermon "Defining Discipleship" for this lesson. I addressed the topic of Growing Deeper through Discipleship in two sermons.

    A. The story is told of a pig and a chicken who were walking down the road one day. 1. As they passed a church, they notice that a potluck charity breakfast was under way. 2. Caught up in the spirit, the pig suggested to the chicken that they each make a contribution. 3. “Great Idea!” ...read more

    Poking Holes In The Darkness / Salt & Light

     | 20,695 views

    A Secret discipleship does not exist in God's kingdom. Either secrecy destroys discipleship, or discipleship destroys secrecy. Salt in a shaker or a light hidden makes no impact. You are called to poke holes in the darkness. (5 additional illustrations) Updated February 2023.

    For those not familiar with an Anglican Service there are four Scripture readings prior to the Message.

    This message looks at the challenge of following Jesus. It considers the nature of discipleship and how it is inseparable from being a Christian.

    Counting the Cost - Following Jesus Luke 14: 25-35 Introduction We live in an era where Christianity has been simplified to a form of ‘easy believism’. There is the option of having Jesus as your Saviour without Him being your Lord. But this was not what Jesus taught. The call to being ...read more

    I grew up in Atlanta, GA during the 70’s. We had four professional sports teams: the Braves in baseball, Falcons in football, Hawks in basketball and Flames in hockey.

    Living An Impactful Life

    We are called to be disciples of Christ and disciple-makers for Christ. Jesus challenges us to consider the cost commitment of discipleship, and not be distracted by the comfort and convenience this world offers.

    Being the first Sunday of the year, I want to take some time to revisit our ES mission – to grow as disciples of Christ and be disciple-makers for Christ. Why are we doing what we are doing? Why is this important? Can we do something else, or can we not do this at all? • We are ...read more

    The analysis of following Jesus in Luke 14:25-35 shows us what is involved in following Jesus.

    Scripture On his journey to Jerusalem from Galilee, Jesus often engaged in controversy with the Jewish leadership, most often the Pharisees (cf. Luke 11:37-54; 13:31-14:24). But now in Luke 14:25, Jesus returns to address the crowds. In doing so, he clarified what is involved in following him. ...read more

    As I follow Jesus as his disciple, I can live a life of eternal purpose and significance.

    I’m convinced one of the reasons so many people were attracted to Jesus was that He offered them purpose for living. Yet Jesus wanted to make sure they really understood what He was all about. They could indeed find meaning and purpose in life, but first they had to commit to following Him as ...read more
