    Jesus said, "If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me." He also said, "Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple." So following him is vitally important. How is it done?

If anyone is interested in them, send me an Email at sam@srmccormick.net with the words "Following Jesus slides" in the subject, and I'll send the PowerPoint file directly by Email.

    What I see from reading the Bible of those who were serving the Lord they had difficulty because they were Christians doing the will of God. Being a disciple does and will cost you something.

    Cost of Being a Disciple Luke 14:25-35 ME Last week Maria and I went back to Parkview Christian Church in Sedalia, MO. It is always good to go back there because we have so many friends there. Parkview is the church were we were before I went into the ministry. I served in many different areas ...read more

    When it comes to winning the lost, God wants His house filled; but when it comes to discipleship, Christ thins out the ranks and wants only those who will die to self and live for Him.

    Jerusalem Lesson: Demands of Discipleship Luke 14:25-35 It is easy to be part of the crowd and follow a popular Jesus, but that is not true discipleship. He calls you away from the crowd to take up your cross and follow Him. When it comes to winning the lost, God wants His house filled; but when ...read more

    One must seriously consider what it means to follow Christ and what commitment is needed to be a Christian.

    I ADMIT IT! I HAVE A TENDENCY TO BE “CHEAP”! WHEN FACING UTILITY BILLS, CAR REPAIR, MEDICAL CO-PAYS, OR HOME REPAIRS, I ALWAYS SEEM TO AKS ONE PARTICULAR QUESTION FIRST: HOW MUCH IS THIS GOING TO COST? IT IS AN HONEST QUESTION.

    A salesman was telling some folks he got a job as a salesman.

    They provided him with a kit where he could go into people’s homes with products and show them some of the products this company sold. Basically this is what the Lord Jesus has done.

    Sometimes we hear folks in the church say, “What happened to ( ) who used to attend Church here?”

    Sometimes when this question is being asked, it is being implied that perhaps something is wrong with the church. Listen, there are some folks who left churches and I believe they were justified in doing so. But there are times when people will ask, “What happened to ( ),” and it has ...read more

    Here is my adaptation of a sermon contributed by Tim Zingale, Sermon Central, Sept. 2007, "The Rabbit". The focus of my adaptation is the declining vitality of the universal Christian church resulting from having lost sight of Christ, the cornerstone of God's redemptive church.

    (If you have found this sermon helpful, please visit us at www.HeritageRestorationProject.org or www.ChristianWisdom.info) One day, a young disciple of Christ who wanted to become everything that God had in mind for him visited the home of an elderly Christian seeking his advice. He had heard that ...read more

    Intro If church size is more important than faithfulness to Jesus, then here are 5 ways to build a mega church. 1) Promise that obedience to Jesus will improve your worldly stature. 2) Promise that people will not have to carry their own cross, because Jesus did. 3) Tell them not to use their ...read more

    Counting The Cost Series

    Jesus said that if we are thinking about following Him, then we should first add up the cost. If we have not considered the task ahead of time, then we may give up; and when this happens, it is a bad testimony to the world.

    This evening’s message is entitled, “Counting the Cost,” and it’s taken from a passage of Scripture that is sometimes called, “The Cost of Discipleship.” When Jesus spoke about the cost of discipleship He incorporated two parables to illustrate His point. One parable speaks of a tower builder and ...read more

    It isn’t easy to follow Christ. There are costs and benefits. Today, we examine the price we pay to follow Jesus.

    It was forty days after the resurrection of the Messiah Jesus. His disciples had been marveling at all that had happened. His death turned their world upside down. With the earthquake that coincided with his passing and the temple’s veil having been torn, there were reports throughout Jerusalem of ...read more

    In this chapter, the Lord Jesus will yet again confront the Pharisees and Sadducees for their religious hypocrisy and Peter will confess that Jesus is the Son of God, which is the rock upon which the church will be built.

    After feeding the 4,000 residents of the Decapolis, Jesus and His disciples traveled to the region of Magdala near the city of Caesarea Philippi. It is here where the Pharisees and Sadducees came together for the specific purpose of bringing down Jesus. Their mutual contempt for Him had woven ...read more
