What does it truly mean to follow Jesus?
In this Father’s Day message, Rev. Duke Dismukes teaches from Luke 14:25–35—a passage where Jesus doesn’t sugarcoat the cost of discipleship.
Following Christ isn’t a casual decision—it’s a daily commitment that may cost us comfort, relationships, or even reputation. But as we’ll see in this message, the reward of walking with Jesus far outweighs the sacrifice. Whether you're a father, a parent, or simply a believer wanting to grow in your walk with Christ, this message will challenge and encourage you to count the cost—and carry the cross.
