Church of the Incarnation Sermons

What does it really mean to follow Jesus?

In this sermon, Greg Brewer reflects on Jesus’ call to the disciples and the image of being “caught” by Christ. Following Jesus is not about dominance or self-assertion, but about yielding control, learning contentment, and discovering the freedom that comes through servanthood.

This message explores the daily inner struggle for who will lead our lives, the difference between power and dominance, and how confidence in Christ grows as we learn to trust Him more deeply. In saying yes to Jesus, we are invited into a shared life of generosity, service, and joy as we follow Him together.
