Why Being a Christian Isn't Easy

We love to talk about the blessings of salvation, but Jesus also told us to count the cost. In this episode, Nate and Pastor Mel unpack what it means to take up your cross daily and follow Christ, not just in theory, but in everyday life.

We talk about:

  • Why following Jesus costs something

  • The difference between Jesus as Saviour vs. Lord

  • Real-life stories of sacrifice (friendships, lifestyle, reputation)

  • Why small daily denials matter for big faith moments

  • How to navigate the tension between God’s blessing and the cost of discipleship

  • Why you can trust God with your life when He asks you to lay things down

🙌 The cost is real, but so is the reward. Following Jesus might mean giving things up, but you gain the life you were truly made for.

👉 Stick around for Part Two coming soon!
