Pastor Tim reminds us that while Jesus’ call to “follow Him” may sound simple, it is one of the most challenging—and rewarding—commitments we can make. Using the story of the rich young ruler in Mark 10, he shows how we can easily fall into insincere worship, rely on our own goodness, and resist surrendering everything to God. Pastor Tim challenges us to examine our hearts: Are we truly worshiping in spirit and truth? Are we secure in our relationship with Jesus, and are we willing to pay the price of discipleship? As a church, we are called to deny ourselves, take up our cross, and actively invest our lives in God’s kingdom—so let’s recommit today to follow Jesus with sincere hearts and obedient lives.
