Referenced Scripture:

Luke 9:23-24, Ephesians 5:25, Mark 1:14-15, James 2:18-19, Revelation 2:1-5

Reflection Questions:

Luke 9:23
Then he said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.

1) Whoever
What were the requirements and pre-qualifications to be a follower of Jesus? Give some examples.What does that say about God that the bar to entry from a cultural perspective was really low?
What thoughts might you have had in observing who Jesus chose to be his closest followers? Explain.

2) Wants to be my disciple
“Wants” implies it is a choice that we make to follow Jesus or not. Why do you think Jesus would give us a choice and not demand that we love and follow Him? Can love be forced? Explain.

1 John 4:19
We love because he first loved us.

3) Must deny themselves
What do you think Jesus meant by this? What does this NOT mean? Explain.
What has it cost you to follow Jesus? Why is it important to know up front that following Jesus can and will be costly?
Is there an area of your life that you find difficult to surrender to Jesus (or an area you find it difficult to follow)? Explain, why?

4) Take up their cross daily and follow me.
What did the symbol of the cross mean to a first century person? How is that different from how we view the symbol?Why does that appear to be a “bad marketing” strategy by Jesus? What do you think he was trying to be clear about?How have you experienced humility, suffering, and death as a follower of Jesus?Do you ever experience FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) because you are a follower of Jesus? Explain.

Luke 9:24
For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it.
5) Explain what Jesus is promising in this statement. Have you experienced the reality of this promise? Why or why not?
6) How do you need to take up your cross TODAY in order to follow Jesus? Why do we need to do this DAILY?
7) What do we do if our heart grows cold, hard, tired, or apathetic?

Read Revelation 2:1-5
8) Why is repentance always the answer when we are off track in following Jesus?
9) Being an ALL IN follower of Jesus is about DIRECTION and NOT PERFECTION.What does that statement mean? Agree or disagree? Why?

Bob Schwahn | Lead Pastor | January 11, 2026

Referenced Scripture:
John 6:60-69, Mark 10:17-22, Ephesians 4:1-3, Matthew 7:21-23

Reflection Questions:
1. Describe your current relationship with Jesus. DTR (Define The Relationship)What adjectives would you use to describe your connection to Him right now? Is it growing closer, getting more distant, or staying the same? Explain.

2. What is the difference between being a fan of Jesus and being a follower of Jesus? What characteristics would you use to describe each of these kinds of people? Where do you see yourself currently?

3. In the life of Jesus (gospels), how does Jesus describe what it means to be a follower of Him? How does Jesus make this definition clear in his teachings and invitations to follow him?

4. Read Mark 10:17-31 (Rich Young Ruler)What are some observations you can make about following Jesus from this story? How does Jesus separate fans from followers in this story? Can you relate to the response of the rich young ruler? Why or why not?

5. In the sermon we talked about identity based spiritual transformation.
Identity → Process → Outcome (fruit)
(who we are) → (what we do) → (what we get)
Why is it critical to start with identity as we approach the pursuit of spiritual transformation? What is the cost/problem with focusing on outcomes first rather than focusing on our identity?How would your life be different if your core identity was being a follower of Jesus? How would it shape your habits/disciplines and the outcomes of your life?

6. Read Matthew 7:21-23How is it possible for someone to think they are a follower of Jesus and not actually have a relationship with Him?What thoughts or questions come to your mind when you read this passage? Why does this passage make it so important for us to really answer the question, “Am I a follower of Jesus?” (as Jesus defines follower)How does Jesus define a true follower of Him?

7. If you had a DTR (define the relationship) with Jesus what do you think you would say? What do you think He would say?

Bob Schwahn | Lead Pastor | November 23, 2025

Referenced Scripture:
Acts 1:3-8, 1 Peter 2:12, John 4:39-42

Reflection Questions:
1. Was there something from the sermon that stood out to you? Explain.

2. When you hear that you are God’s plan A to TELL the world that Jesus is King and to SHOW what the world what the Kingdom of Jesus looks like, how do you respond to that? Thoughts, emotions, desires??? Why?

3. How have you seen God use you as a witness for Jesus and His Kingdom? How would you desire to see God use you? Explain.

4. What challenges or barriers have you faced in being a witness for Jesus? What would it take for you to overcome those challenges?

5. Being a ‘witness’ means we SHOW and TELL. We SHOW the world what the Kingdom of Jesus looks like and we TELL the world how to make Jesus their King. Why is both SHOWING and TELLING essential to help people come to faith in Jesus and to follow Him?

6. In Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) he outlines what His Kingdom looks like. Read through that and make observations of what the world looks like when Jesus is King.Is that a compelling vision of the world to you? Do you imagine it would be compelling to others? Explain.

7. When telling the story of your life of faith, why would it be important to share authentically (joys, challenges, questions, failures, hope)? What is the cost of not being authentic about our faith?

8. Read John 4 about the Samaritan women. What made her an unlikely candidate for being a witness for Jesus? How did God use her INVITE to change the world?

9. Read John 4:39-42 How could God use you to INVEST and INVITE someone in your world to “come and see” the King and the Kingdom? Who are at least 5 people you could pray for and invite to join you at Journey between now and Christmas?
