The Cost of Discipleship - Pt. 2

Pastor Steve Baker challenges believers to examine whether they are truly disciples of Christ or merely saved individuals. He makes a clear distinction between salvation (which is free) and discipleship (which costs), explaining that while salvation is God's free gift, becoming a disciple requires placing Christ above all earthly relationships and priorities. Through powerful illustrations about counting the cost and bearing one's cross, Pastor Baker emphasizes that true discipleship demands worship, surrender, and making Jesus the absolute priority in every area of life. This convicting message calls us to move beyond casual Christianity to wholehearted commitment, reminding us that anything we hold above Christ hinders us from being His true disciples.
