I’m Asking My Wife and Children To Watch This Sermon

I’m not mandating it – – – but, I’m strongly asking – – my family to watch this video. I think it is that important. Would you watch it to? Is there 30 minutes of the news, ESPN, or your cooking show you would give up to watch this sermon?

57 As they were going along the road, someone said to him, “I will follow you wherever you go.” 58 And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.” 59 To another he said, “Follow me.” But he said, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.” 60 And Jesus said to him, “Leave the dead to bury their own dead. But as for you, go and proclaim the kingdom of God.” 61 Yet another said, “I will follow you, Lord, but let me first say farewell to those at my home.” 62 Jesus said to him, “No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.”

  4. Thanks Chris

    a bit convicting, and yet inspiring.

    I’ve heard that a good sermon should
    1. Stretch your mind
    2. Tan your hide
    3. lift your soul
    4. Change your life
    That was a good sermon!

  7. My family will listen to this or be kept out of our will! Our whole staff watched a version of this.

  8. Hi Pastor Chris. I thought that sermon was very interesting. I liked the part about the people in Asia who asked him to keep preaching for 8 hours. But I was wondering if it’s bad to have fun at church. Like, at youth group, we play games. But I also learn from the lesson. Is the game time bad?

    Thanks for considering my question.
