Next Steps

Mark 8:34-36  (NLT)

34 Then, calling the crowd to join his disciples, he (Jesus) said, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross, and follow me. 

35 If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake and for the sake of the Good News, you will save it. 

36 And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul?

Jesus has a message for us.

1.  If you are just a curious person in the crowd,  come and see.  

You don't have to believe in Him for God to speak to you. 

2.  If you are just in the congregation, come and join us.  

   

We are not a building, but we are a family. 

3.  If you are already committed, come and grow with us. 

We are a very large church on Sunday, but a very small one Monday through Saturday through our small groups. 

4,  If you are hard core, come and serve with us.   

Come and find your potential by reaching others for Christ.  

Matthew 10:32-33  (NLT)

32“Everyone who acknowledges me (Jesus) publicly here on earth, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven. 33 But everyone who denies me here on earth, I will also deny before my Father in heaven.
