    Jesus says, “If anyone comes to me and doesn’t hate his father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters--and yes, even his own life--he cannot be my disciple” (Luke 14:26).

    Intro In the Gospel reading for today, we possibly find Jesus at the height of His success, as we measure it. Never had He enjoyed such large crowds. People flocked to Him--and the numbers just grew larger and larger as He got closer to Jerusalem. Yet, Jesus has to ruin it by preaching a bunch ...read more

    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

    Sermon 4 in series. As Jesus’ ministry became increasingly popular with those desiring to shed the bondage of the Pharisees, many desired to follow Him. Yet Jesus is not interested in crowds. Rather, Jesus desires commitment!

    This sermon aims to move people from being consumers to people who disciple others. It emphasises that it is not the pastor's job to mature Christians but it is the role of the Christian to do this. It encourages personal prayer, bible reading and sharing

    Discipleship part 2 INTRODUCTION To open I would like to start with a true story that happened here at our church.

    What Is A Real Disciple?

     | 15,099 views

    There is a difference between a believer and a disciple. There is no such thing as an instant disciple; like the word, it takes discipline.

    “Father, I am your servant, willing and desiring to be used to bless your people.” The Fields are white and the laborers are few! 2. C.H. Spurgeon said, “If God does not save a man by truth he certainly will not save them by lies, and if the old gospel ...read more

     | 5,182 views

    God’s invitation to the Great Feast (God’s kingdom) is free but it is costly as it demands that we put Jesus above all else.

    We continue this second week of our 40 day journey through Lent as we walk with Jesus to the cross. Last week I reminded us of the scripture passage from Luke 9:51 which said “When the days drew near for him to be taken up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem.” Jesus, knowing full well what would ...read more

    There are times in our spiritual lives when we want all the blessings of heaven, but with the least amount of sacrifice possible. There are times when we live our Christian lives in such a way that we seem to be saying, “What is the least amount that I ha

    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.

    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
