Scripting the Flip – Vision Series – Part 2

Josh Carstensen, Lead Pastor
September 15, 2024

Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen continues a vision series where we explore the question, "What is a Christian?" Being a disciple means sacrifice, not just in words, but in how we live. Jesus invites us to embrace that identity fully, but it requires something deeper than just attending church. In Luke 14, He calls us to count the cost—to give up everything, including our own desires, and follow Him daily.

Are you truly willing to let go of what holds you back and give everything to Jesus? Today, we have the chance to start fresh, but the question remains: Are you all in?
