Faith before Politics
Series: (All)
This is election season and there is a lot we can disagree about, but there is one thing I want to show you today that we can all agree with:
 
Matthew 22:37-40 -- "Jesus replied:  "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.  This is the first and greatest commandment.  And the second is like it:  'Love your neighbor as yourself.'  All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.,"

    What does it mean to follow Jesus? Part 7 — Unfollow
    Jesus invites everyone to follow him.  Being a sinner and having doubts is a prerequisite because we are all sinners and we all have doubts.  Following Jesus results in overwhelming faith, but at times it can also be inconvenient, costly, and even embarrassing.  It can also cause us to miss opportunities, lose business, or stand out in the crowd when we would rather fit in.  Even Jesus' earliest followers wrestled with this tension.  But on e of his disciples asked a question that put everything in perspective.  "To whom shall I go?"

    What does it mean to follow Jesus? Part 6 — Leading Great
    We don't usually associate leadership with the church.  Leadership is about what could and should be.  We assume the church is about what has been.  But Jesus was the greatest leader who ever lived.  He modeled a unique approach to leadership that defies our expectations and changed the world.
     
    Jesus leveraged is authority for the benefit of those under his authority.  Following Jesus means that when we find ourselves in positions of authority we do the same.

    What does it mean to follow Jesus? Part 5 – The Fine Print
    During his time on earth, Jesus invited misbehavers and unbelievers to follow him.  We are all invited to follow him.  You are invited to follow him, but there's something you need to know about following Jesus.  It will eventually cost you something.  It may cost you money, career, advancement, or even relationships.  That's because Jesus offers us the choice of denying ourselves now or losing ourselves later.  But you'll find that when you pay the price for following Jesus, you'll be glad you did.

    What does it really mean to follow Jesus? — Part 4 Follow Wear
    Everyone is invited to follow Jesus.  Being a sinner doesn't disqualify you.  Being a doubter doesn't qualify you.  The goal of following Jesus is a faith that overcomes our fear of the future or our current circumstances.  It's a faith that gives us peace.  But what do people who follow Jesus look like?  What do they wear?

    What does it mean to follow Jesus?: Part 3 – Fearless
    We want to follow Jesus but where is he leading?  What is the payoff for following him?  Is it being a better person?  Is it life in heaven after we die?  Is it a pain free life?  If you follow Jesus, you will be a better person, you will get to heaven, and you won't have a pain free life.  But that's okay, because Jesus offers much more--a faith so strong it frees us from fear.
