When Following Jesus Costs You: Immediate Obedience in a Hesitant Culture

We live in a culture that tells us to wait until we feel ready—more clarity, more confidence, more control. But in the Gospel of Mark, when Jesus calls people to follow Him, they respond immediately. No delay. No conditions. In this episode, we begin a new series by exploring what keeps us hesitating and what it really looks like to respond in obedience when Jesus calls. Following Him will always require leaving something behind—but it’s in that surrender that real faith begins.
