Counting the Cost of Discipleship

Sep 7, 2025 • The Rev. Charlie Holt

What does it cost to follow a cross-carrying Messiah? Working through Luke 14:25-33, the sermon proposes an ordered life of God, spouse, children, and then work, and warns how easily hobbies, sports, and careers displace it. It tells of an engagement broken off once a couple honestly weighed their families' conflict, and of two brothers who gave away their company's profits, noting that sacrifice looks different for each disciple.
