We launch this new series alongside our Growth Group experiment! Are you a follower of Jesus? or are you just a fan? The answer to this question has huge implications in your life. This morning, we are going to begin the series by asking you to have a "Define the Relationship" (DTR) conversation with Jesus.
Am I a follower of Jesus?
Or am I just a fan?
When push comes to shove, we like our Jesus like we like our sports- simply one of many parts of our lives.
Luke 9:23-25 NIV
Jesus was never looking for fans.
Question #1:
Why are you here?
What he offered was infinitely better than they could imagine. But what they really wanted was some bread.
John 6:66 NIV
Question #2:
Are you all in?
John 6:67 NIV
John 6:68-69 NIV
Luke 9:23 NIV
“Thus it begins; the cross is not the terrible end to an otherwise Godfearing and happy life, but it meets us at the beginning of our communion with Christ. When Christ calls a man, he bids him come and die.”
- Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Luke 9:24-25 NIV
Are you a fan?
Or are you a follower?
