Following Jesus is Inconvenient - March 26,2019

Jesus finds us where we are, but following Him is another story. Being a disciple of Jesus is difficult. The Word of God tells us that the world rejected Him, and it will reject us. The path of a disciple is a difficult journey, but the Good News for us is that Jesus and His Spirit are with us the whole way!

In this lesson we will look at the first part, where we dedicate ourselves to Jesus, and the commitment we are really making to Him.
