    We even fear commitment to areas that demand commitment to make them work from marriage, to raising children, to deep friendships, to discipleship & to following Jesus. God though wants us to make the right commitments in life. So God sent Jesus on a gre

    OVERCOMING YOUR FEAR OF COMMITMENT LUKE 9:57-62 Our society has a fear of commitment. We’d rather bail out than blast through. We’d rather leave than last.

    he extraordinary and miraculous power of God through us will only be as good as our commitment to Jesus Christ!

    Last week we looked at the first 5 of the 10 Commandments given by God to the people of Israel.

    Reluctant Recruits

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jan 1, 2018
     | 8,748 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.

    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.

    This message was inspired (outline borrowed) from another pastor. The call of Christ is more pressing and demanding than the average believer considers it to be.

    Following Christ Luke 9:57-62 * In his book "None of These Diseases”, S. I. McMillen, tells a story of a young woman who wanted to go to college, but her heart sank when she read the question on the application blank that asked, "Are you a leader?"
