WHAT HAPPENS IN THIS EPISODE:

In this Jesus Stories episode, we examine the question of costs. Have you ever considered the value of the Kingdom of God? Jesus explains this to us. Given its value, then, what is the cost to follow Jesus into the Kingdom of God? Jesus explains that to us, too. We take a deep dive into these questions as we consider “The Cost For Following Jesus.” This is a tough teaching to hear. But, it is crucial to understand what Jesus asks of us as followers.
