Easter at Southview | Seeking Informed Consent

Easter at Southview | Seeking Informed Consent

This week, Pastor Nathan Wakefield continues our Easter at Southview series with special guest, former Southview Pastor Bob Grayson. In Luke 9:18-27, we learn that Easter reminds us not only of salvation accomplished, but of the serious, lifelong commitment required to follow Christ. Video of the worship service is available beginning Sunday at 9:30 AM at https://southviewbaptist.org/live.

Locations & Times

Southview Baptist Church

3434 S 13th St, Lincoln, NE 68502, USA

Sunday 9:30 AM

1. Revelation — The reality of who Jesus is makes everything worth it (18-20).

• If you have never answered the question, “Who is Jesus?” today is the day (18).
• There are lots of wrong answers to the question (19).
• The right answer is nothing short of incredible (20).

Action: Pause right now and confirm — not what your parents believed, not what your church believes — but what you believe.
2. Informed — Those who follow Jesus must understand what He has done (21-22).

• Rejection and execution by those in power was certain (22b).
• But rejection and death was not the end (22c).

Action: Do you understand not only who Jesus is — but what He has done?
3. Consent — The invitation to follow Christ is an invitation to hardship — but it is worth it (23-27).

• The call to follow involves daily submission — even when it is hard (23-25).
• The call to follow is a call to commitment and loyalty (26).
• The call to follow is completely worth it (27).

Action: Have you merely admired Jesus — or have you consented to follow Him fully?
Conclusion — Give your consent today.
