Count the Cost: Following Jesus in a Hostile World
Update: 2025-09-22
Description
What does it really mean to follow Jesus when the cost is high?
In this week’s episode, Jerrad reflects on the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk; not just as a political figure, but as a brother in Christ who boldly proclaimed the gospel until his final moments.
Drawing from Luke 9 and his own experiences at the Dad Tired retreat, Jerrad challenges men to slow down, quiet the noise, and seriously ask: Am I all in with Jesus?
You’ll hear:
- Why silence matters for hearing God’s voice
- How Charlie Kirk’s final words point us to courage and hope
- The danger of being overly eager or overly cautious in discipleship
- What it means to “count the cost” before putting your hand to the plow
This episode is a sobering call to examine our “but first” excuses and to step fully into the life Jesus is calling us to live.
