Series: Follow Me: The Story Of Discipleship

Text: Mark 3:13-19
It's a pleasure to have each and every one of you with us this morning. I want you to turn in your Bibles to Mark 3, as we finish our series titled "Follow Me." Over the summer, we have invested our time and attention on the 12 disciples Jesus called into His ministry. We have learned from these men the incredible excitement they no doubt had as they followed Jesus, hearing His teachings and watching His way of life. We are reminded that we too have been offered this invitation to follow Jesus. Our question is, how do we do this?
We have learned the good, the bad and sometimes even the ugly of what it means to follow or not follow Jesus. We've hopefully learned from these men ways we can emulate their good examples, as well as learned from the bad ones to be sure we're eliminating those things from our lives.
I want to thank a few of the other pastors who have filled this pulpit over the summer: Pastor Phil, Pastor Steve, Pastor Bill, and Pastor Josh. This has allowed Amanda and me to visit each of our campuses and open God's Word with them. I'm here to tell you, as you'll experience tonight at Village Fest, that the Spirit of almighty God is alive and well at each of our campuses. God is up to great things. I'm really excited about the future, not only of God's kingdom work, but also for Village Bible Church in the days to come. My visits to the other campuses have only increased that sense of excitement.
Now let's close out this series by focusing on these last three disciples. The reason why we can take care of three disciples in one week is that the Bible records very little about them. I want to be careful not to fill in the gaps, but simply to take what we have in Scripture and introduce them to you. These are obscure men, so we're inclined to say, "Who are they?" Then I want to apply three lessons I think are impor ...
