The gospel is a free gift — but it comes with an invitation: “Follow Me.”

And following Jesus comes with a cost.

In this episode, we sit down with Micah Harris and Alex Trotter to talk about the real cost of discipleship. What has following Jesus required of us? Where has obedience felt painful? Where have we wrestled with surrender? And how has death to self produced fruit we never expected?

Together, we explore:

• What following Jesus has cost us (Mark 8:34–35; Luke 14:26–33)
• “If there is any other way…” moments of surrender (Luke 22:39–46; Hebrews 5:7–9)
• How death produces fruit in the Kingdom (John 12:23–26)
• The table-flipping moments that redefine our faith (John 2:13–21)
