Count the cost

Challenges listeners to reflect on their personal surrender and commitment to Jesus, outlining the practices of discipleship and the intentional path to spiritual maturity.

2 questions for reflection during communion:

  1. What do I need to surrender ๐Ÿซณ to the Lord today?
  2. What steps ๐Ÿชœ do you want to make to follow you better?
  • Discipleship is not a goal ๐Ÿฅ… to be perfect, but a continual process ๐Ÿง‹ of being perfected.
  • To truly follow Jesus โœ๏ธ we have to count the cost ๐Ÿ’ฐ and have a plan ๐Ÿงพ to be transformed.
  • We have to be cautious ๐Ÿšง not to confuse the what with the why.

The 9 practices:

  1. Sabbath โ›ช
  2. Solitude ๐Ÿ๏ธ
  3. Prayer ๐Ÿ™
  4. Fasting ๐Ÿฅฃ
  5. Scripture ๐Ÿ“œ
  6. Community ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ‘งโ€๐Ÿ‘ฆ
  7. Generosity ๐ŸŽ
  8. Service ๐Ÿ‘ท
