In this message, Brett Avery uses a fun opening game to draw students into a deeper challenge from Luke 9 — the question of willingness. Jesus invites three different people to follow Him, yet each gives an excuse that reveals what they’re not willing to let go of. Brett connects this to modern life, showing that true discipleship means putting Jesus first — above comfort, reputation, and even relationships. He reminds listeners that God designed each of us as His masterpiece, created to live boldly and serve a world that desperately needs Him. The question he leaves us with is simple but life-changing: are we truly willing to follow?
