Follow Me: The Cost, Part I

Follow Me: The Cost, Part I - Ken Wetmore

Jesus pulled no punches when it came to the cost of following Him. Unlike some preachers today, Jesus made it clear that earthly comfort and riches are not the results of following Him.

This week one of our #WholeLifeReflections asked: What does “Jesus first” look like in your life?

NEXT WEEK 2/18/23: The Cost, Part II - Ken Wetmore

What happens when the cost is too much? What happens when Jesus asks for something that we think is too precious to give? Many of us look at the story of the rich young ruler and write the young man off. Jesus didn’t. What is impossible for humans is still possible for God.
