To be His disciple, Jesus is asking us the question: Got Salt? Do we have salt? Salt is Good. It takes away bitterness, it enhances the sweet things we eat and preserves our food. As disciples of Jesus we need to be salt in this world, this message looks deeper into what this means.

The reason some cannot be a disciple is not because they are unworthy, it is because they are unwilling to pay the cost of Love. Jesus offers us free the gift of forgiveness but in our text in this message in Luke 14 Jesus makes it very clear that there is a cost to being his disciple. Jesus grace is free but it is not cheap.

Worship on Sunday morning should have the feel of a family dinner. It is time to feast on God’s word and celebrate His goodness to us with gratitude in song and prayer. And we are all invited to this feast! We all need to be eating God’s word everyday so we each look fat and happy because of it.

We all fail at loving others sometimes. And we we do it is often because of our pride. Price can make us either overconfident in our importance or insecure. For it is when we are worried about whether we are loved that we forget to love others. In this message we look at how the reason for our insecurity can be pride.

Do you realize you were made to be good? Often in in church, we talk about the fall of man or our sinful nature. The truth is we sin, every one of us, according to the bible. We all depart from God’s perfect design. The bible does not start on the depravity of man it starts with man’s and woman's design of good. We were made in God’s image and the bible says God is truly the only good thing!

God is both tough and tender! God loves me enough to tell me when I am going the wrong way! We all run from His love at times and seek to do it our way! But His love is tough he does not run away from us!

Faith is not passive! Faith is fight! The world, the devil, our own flesh war against us constantly. The fight is to remember to claim victory in faith through this life's battles! Many lose the battle because they are wasting their energy fighting the wrong battle. And then still others lose it because they do not recognize they are in a battle. In Luke 13 we explore how Jesus is teaching us how to win.

In the parable in Luke 13 about the parable of the mustard seed Jesus is saying to us it is the little things we do daily for the gospel that really matter and make a difference.
