The Call To Follow Jesus

Matthew 8:18-22 Christian Standard Bible (CSB) The Cost of Following Jesus 18 When Jesus saw a large crowd[a] around him, he gave the order to go to the other side of the sea. 19 A scribe approached him and said, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.” 20 Jesus told him, “Foxes have dens, and birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head.” 21 “Lord,” another of his disciples said, “first let me go bury my father.” 22 But Jesus told him, “Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”
