    Too often we allow our painful past to hold us hostage to the moment of our pain. We are hurt or offended and are seriously challenged to move past the pain to a place of wholeness. It is only from a place of wellness that we can complete God's purpose

    Hear the Word - Momentarially committed – then we get distracted We find ourselves in the same place…stuck for years (gossip, unforgive, complain) Jezebel - Lazy - read the bible - sleep vs. SMBS – watch TV vs. praying…excuses, lie vs. the truth… We know we need to ...read more

    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

    While a lack of passion leads to spiritual complacency, the wrong kind of passion leads to unholy acts! Today’s sermon is going to focus on the life of Apostle James who learned firsthand that passion is only good when aligned with the will of Christ!

    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.

    Reluctant Recruits

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jan 1, 2018

    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.

    Three men each making a statement regarding his commitment or lack of commitment to following Christ. Each wanted to follow Christ; none wanted to stop looking back. Their commitment can be described as limited, delayed, and insincere.

    Don’t Look Back Luke 9:57-62 Would you consider yourself a committed Christian? Realistically, are you a disciple of Christ or merely a follower of Christ? There is a difference.
