     | 15,432 views

    Jesus specifically targets, in this passage, the excuses we might use to give half-effort when being His disciple.

    “Half-Way Discipl…” LUKE 9:57-62 INTRODUCTION… THINGS YOU SHOULD NOT DO HALF-WAY (P) There are somethings in life that we should never do half-way. Most things in life we should give our best effort, persevere, and see to completion. Giving half-effort while swimming means that you drown and ...read more

    Following Jesus

    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?

    Note: I have prepared some simple slides the I used in delivering this sermon. 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.

    Going Into Battle

    But the church today isn’t living in power, it isn’t going into to battle and we have a hard time obeying Jesus. Even Christians dislike each other and sometimes even hate each other. Even Christians would rather do worldly things rather than Godly thin

    Going Into Battle ME Not too long ago, when HBO had a free weekend I watched a war movie called Hacksaw Ridge. The movie is about Desmond Doss. Desmond wanted to help with the war, but he would not kill anyone, he wanted to be a medic and help the wounded. The movie is based on a true story. ...read more

    Reluctant Recruits

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jan 1, 2018
     | 8,901 views

    Jesus did not present a rosy, unrealistic picture of the Christian life. In Luke 9 we encounter 3 potential recruits. Jesus appraises their resolve, exposes their excuses, and urges them to consider the cost of discipleship

    It’s Career Day at the high school and a small crowd is gathered at the Army’s booth. A Recruiter tells the students about field duty in the winter, eating MRE’s, family separations, grueling physical exercise, frequent moves, and the likelihood of war…and pretty soon he’s standing alone. The ...read more

    The Comfortable Cross--We Don't Want The Real Thing

    based on 1 rating
     | 16,989 views

    We don't mind going to the cross as long as we can take a number of comfortable and convenient things along with us. Jesus does not call us to comfort. He calls us to die.

    Not A Fan Part 4: The Comfortable Cross January 28, 2018 1 King 12:25-33 Luke 9:51-62 Some of the ideas in this sermon came from Kyle Idleman’s series Fan or Follower which we did at our church. We are now in week 4 of our Not a Fan series. We have looked at Fan or Follower, Follow Me, ...read more

    If we fail to seize our God-given moment, we can lose opportunities to be successful, opportunities to witness, and opportunities for salvation.

    Seize the Moment YOLO Part 3 Luke 9:59-62 We are currently going through the message series: YOLO. “You only live once.” It is true that we only live once. However, what does this imply? The Bible is very clear on this. We only live once, therefore, we must live our one and only life ...read more

    By forcing the reader to see what it means to serve Jesus in extreme circumstances, Luke challenges us to consider the depth of our own personal discipleship.

    Message Hard Sayings of Jesus - Luke 9:57-62 “The Truly Committed Don’t Look Back” In America there is a mountainous forest called the “Bridger Wilderness Area”. Let me say that again the Bridger WILDERNESS Area. The idea is to go there and have a genuine wilderness experience. After you visit ...read more

    A Turning Point In The Ministry Of Jesus

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 2, 2016
    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,051 views

    When we set out with Jesus, we can hardly begin to understand what paths He might lead us down to get to our destination. It is not always what we think, but we must implicitly trust Him.

    A TURNING POINT IN THE MINISTRY OF JESUS. Luke 9:51-62. “When the days were being fulfilled for the receiving up of Jesus, He set his face like a flint to go to Jerusalem” (LUKE 9:51). There is a sense of divine destiny about this statement, yet what does it mean? At first we are reminded of ...read more

    A Casual Disciple of Christ? Jesus teaches us that such a disciple is no disciple.

    No excuse is good enough to keep us from following Jesus.

    Excuses Luke 9: 57 - 62 Intro: I heard of a pastor who also preached on this passage. He centered his thoughts and comments on the fact that those who would follow Jesus claimed, “I will follow, but . . .” At the conclusion of his message, the pastor said, “I encourage all who identify with ...read more

    The Cost Of Discipleship

     | 12,300 views

    This sermon looks at the rejection of the Samaritans, and examines the excuses of the three would be disciples. This sermon has some illustrations to draw the hearer back in, and helps to apply the text to the life of the hearer in their baptismal identity.

    Sometimes you just need to learn the value of a dollar. I remember when my nephew Kaden was learning this at the Wisconsin Dells. We were downtown, where all the shops were, and he was given a dollar earlier in the day. Thinking that was enough money to buy something in a tourist trap, he began ...read more
