Calvary Christian Church - Napa Valley

Most good things and most awesome things are really inconvenient. I was thinking about the most awesome views I’ve ever had of nature and of the world have all been on an inconvenient height; and the more strenuous height, the more off the beaten path it is, it seems like the more beautiful it is. The more inconvenient the location is, the greater it is. Jesus asks His followers to do amazingly inconvenient things. He tells the rich man, when the rich man comes and says, “I want to follow you,” He says, “Sell all your stuff, and then come back and follow Me.” He tells the guy that’s like, “Hey, Man, I’m totally on board, real quick, my dad just died and I just gotta bury him…”; and Jesus says, “Nope. Can’t follow Me if you go bury your dad. Let the dead bury the dead.”
