The Temptation to Look Back

What does it really mean to follow Jesus? In Luke 9:57–62, three people tell Jesus, “I’ll follow You,” but each one has a reason to look back. Comfort. Convenience. Control.

In this message Pastor Jeff Cranston unpacks what Jesus meant when He said, “No one who puts a hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.”

Jesus doesn’t want half-hearted followers—He calls us to follow Him fully. No reserve. No retreat. No regrets. This message challenges us to stop saying, “I’ll follow You, but…” and start saying, “I’ll follow You, no matter what.”
