Freedom in Following

Freedom is typically seen as the ability to not have to answer for anything or to anyone. In this message (Freedom in Following) preached on July 14, the Scripture teaches that freedom is found in following Christ. In fact, the best way to live our best life to its best potential is to follow, which can be understood as making ourselves slaves to Christ and others. Included in this message from Galatians 5 are 5 steps to following Jesus in a way that will indeed set us free. Listen to the message here.

Barriers to Following Jesus

Sunday, June 23, I had the opportunity to preach a sermon based on Luke 9:57-62 called, Barriers to Following Jesus. As is the sermon, this message is based off Kevin Idleman's book, Not a Fan. Basically, this message focused on the barriers of poverty, priorities, and pursuits. To follow Jesus we must be willing to let go of our comfort, conditions and control, and deny, abandon, and refuse ourselves. Here is a link to the sermon: Barriers to Following Jesus.
