Count The Cost (Luke 14:25–33)

What does it really mean to follow Jesus? Why does He tell the crowds to count the cost before becoming His disciples? And how can a passage that seems to demand everything ultimately point us to the grace of the gospel? In this message from Luke 14:25–33, Pastor Caleb explores Jesus' challenging call to wholehearted discipleship, the danger of settling for a comfortable or convenient faith, and why surrendering our lives to Christ begins not with proving ourselves but with trusting the One who has already paid the cost. Whether you're wrestling with what it means to follow Jesus, weary from trying to measure up, or ready to surrender every area of your life to Him, this message is a reminder that while discipleship costs us everything, only Jesus could pay the price that brings us into God's family.
