Faith Ain't Free — Part 4: Risk Assessment

In this week’s installment from the Faith Ain’t Free series, we explore what Jesus meant when He called His followers to “count the cost.” Using the business concept of a risk assessment, we examine how discipleship requires intentional commitment, not emotional excitement. Jesus challenges us to evaluate our loyalties, reorder our priorities, and embrace the cross of obedience even when it’s heavy, uncomfortable, or misunderstood.Through Luke 14:25–27, we uncover the tension between our love for family and our devotion to Christ, the weight of carrying our cross, and the quiet significance of faithfulness in the Kingdom. This episode invites you to perform a spiritual risk assessment of your own and consider what following Jesus may truly require in this season.
