Join Pastor Joshua Kennon for this impactful sermon exploring the true cost of discipleship through the Book of Luke, Chapter 9. As Jesus begins His journey to the cross, He calls His followers to a radical commitment that challenges popular misconceptions about Christianity being easy or fun. Drawing powerful contrasts between the extravagant cost of traveling to Mars and the free yet costly call to follow Christ, this message reveals four essential traits of true followers: peacemaking, sacrifice, prioritizing God’s kingdom, and undivided loyalty.

🔹 Discover why following Jesus is not like a trip to Disneyland but a daily choice to deny self and take up our cross.
🔹 Understand how Jesus teaches us to respond with grace and peace rather than judgment and wrath toward others.
🔹 Learn how to reorder your life priorities and remove distractions to fully embrace God’s kingdom.
🔹 Reflect on what it means to have undivided loyalty, living with wholehearted devotion to Christ.

This sermon challenges believers and seekers alike to evaluate their faith commitment and encourages those feeling distracted or overwhelmed to realign with Jesus’ call. Featuring vivid biblical stories, historical analogies, and practical applications, this message will inspire you to follow Jesus with courage and faithfulness.
