The Disciple's Priority

Speaker Pastor Steve Steinmetz Series Following Jesus

THE DISCIPLE’S PRIORITY

Mark 1:16-20

I. A DISCIPLE MUST CHOOSE TO FORSAKE OTHER PRIORITIES

  1. Christ must take priority over jobs
  2. Christ must take priority over people
  3. Christ must take priority over wealth
  4. Christ must take priority over a way of life

II. A DISCIPLE MUST CHOOSE TO FOLLOW ONE PERSON

  1. We have a command to obey – “follow Me”
  2. We have a promise to claim – “I will make you fishers of men”

  1. This is a process performed by Christ
  2. This is a process performed in us
  3. This is a process performed for men

Conclusion: Matthew 9:36 “But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd. Then He said to His disciples, ‘the harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.’”
