Whatever it takes!

In the movie, Avengers: Endgame the superheroes are at a loss. The evil Thanos has destroyed half of all living creatures in the universe. He looks unbeatable! The Avengers appear to have as much chance of defeating him as you have of winning Powerball. They're unsure of what to do next. But to undo Thanos' evil work, the one glimmer of hope is their solemn pledge to do "whatever it takes!"

Jesus was a real superhero who was willing to do "whatever it takes" to accomplish his mission. Are we willing to do "whatever it takes" to follow him?
