Pastor Errin had the opportunity to preach last week on Jesus’ parable of “the Great Banquet”. The man running the banquet ended up filling his house with the poor, the crippled, the blind, and the lame because the prosperous weren’t interested in attending. As a result of this teaching, great crowds were now surrounding Jesus. Everyone wanted to see what Jesus would do or teach next! However, these people had yet to count the cost of following Jesus. In our text, we’ll look at that cost and answer the question, “Is it worth following Jesus?”. Luke 14:25-35

About 1/3 of Jesus’ teaching was in the form of parables. Whether we are young or old, we love the stories which are told by Jesus, because they are so engaging. We will be exploring together parables which are unique to Luke’s Gospel of Jesus Christ. We will be covering topics including the wonder of Jesus’ saving grace, the problem of self-righteousness, the pursuit of God above everything else, a passion to love the lost, the centrality of prayer, stewardship of our possessions, and the importance of focusing on the coming of Christ. May God’s Spirit use God’s Word to make us more like God’s Son.
