Conversation 6: Wanting To Want

June 2, 2019 • Baly Botten

Conversation 6 in the Follow Me series deals with the topic of consumerism and how this affects your following Jesus. Pastor Baly said that consumer-Christianity asks the question, “What’s in it for me?” What the Lord wants us to consider instead is a perspective that is very different, transforming and changing our hearts to be more like His. To hear more about how you can have this in your life, listen to conversation 6, Wanting to Want.

Conversation 8: Unfollow

June 16, 2019 • Rev. Monty C. Wright

Unfollow is the last Sunday conversation in the Follow Me series. There is a significant crossroad that all of Jesus’ followers encountered, a pivot moment that caused a number of them to press the “unfollow” button and leave. Jesus then asked the 12 that were left, “You do not want to leave too, do you?” Peter then responded by saying, “Where shall we go?” Have you been there? When you are at that place where you are contemplating unfollowing due to transition, temptation, and trouble, God wants us to have clarity so we can make the right choice and not have regrets. To hear more this clarity, listen to conversation 8, Unfollow.

Pastor Monty gives us three applications, when practiced would be both powerful and healing at the same time. To hear more, listen to conversation 7, The Secret of Leading Great.

Conversation 5: The Disclosure Statement

May 26, 2019 • Rev. Monty C. Wright

The Disclosure Statement is conversation 5 in the Follow Me series. In Mark 8, Jesus has a discussion with his disciples where He asks the question, “Who do people say that I am?” From there, He speaks about the implications for His identity. Ultimately, there is a moral imperative for following and it brings us to a threshold or fork in the road. To hear more about this, listen to conversation 5, The Disclosure Statement.
