34 Luke 9:51-62 - The Desires of Discipleship

In this sermon, Pastor Magdiel looks at Luke 9:51-62. As Jesus “sets his face” toward Jerusalem, Luke shows the deliberate and costly nature of his journey to fulfill the Father’s mission. The disciples reveal mixed and misguided desires—seeking retribution, status, or delay—exposing hearts not yet aligned with Jesus’ kingdom. Jesus clarifies the Christian’s calling as an uncompromising, whole-life commitment that places loyalty to him above comfort, custom, and competing priorities.
