"Count the Cost" – Mark 2:1–12

Preached the Sunday before Vacation Bible School, “Count the Cost” from Mark 2:1–12 captures Pastor Jeff Cox’s heart for reaching people with the gospel. Drawing from the story of the friends who carried the paralytic to Jesus, Pastor Cox challenges the church to work together, overcome obstacles, and make personal sacrifices so others can meet the Savior. This sermon is a stirring reminder that true ministry requires effort, unity, and love—and that no cost is too great when it comes to bringing people to Jesus.
