What happens when Jesus met a notorious sinner in Capernaum? He invited him, Levi, to be his disciple! "Follow me," Jesus said. And Levi left his old life to be a follower of Jesus. Embracing the new life that Jesus offers means leaving our old lives behind. What does this look like? How do we pull this off? In this message from Gordon Dabbs, Ph.D., find out more about rejecting the world's idea of success to embrace true abundant life in Jesus Christ.
About the series. . .
People everywhere seek success. Some through gaining wealth, some through influence, or achievement, some through the applause or approval of other people.
Many searches for success leave us feeling empty, or, in our contemporary works, divided and at odds with other people that we view increasingly as competitors or adversaries. According to Jesus Christ, success is reachable – just not in these ways people normally go after it. Jesus provides an antidote to the world that is growing sicker from it’s misguided search for success.
In the (Un)Successful message series, Gordon Dabbs, Ph.D., invites us redefine success, choosing relationship over efficiency and depth over superficiality.
