A Church Growth Masterclass | John 6
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Preached on June 7, 2026 by Pastor Jared Kress
Main Idea:
A crowd of consumers follows Jesus for what He gives, but the twelve stay because of who He is. True discipleship is rooted in enduring relationships, not in miracles or crowds, especially when the bread runs out, and the teaching gets tough.
Challenge:
Are you following Jesus for the free bread, or are you following Him because He is the Bread of Life?
4 Ways Jesus Cares for His Core 12 Disciples:
1. Cares for the Core in the Crowd
2. Covers the Core in the Chaos
3. Challenges the Crowd for Contrast
4. A Choice for the Core to Confirm
