281 The Cost of Discipleship: Embracing the Cruciform Life

Monday, July 1: In this episode of The Daily Grind podcast, beginning a new season we’ll look into the concept of the cruciform life – living a life that mirrors the sacrifice of Jesus. We explore what it means to deny ourselves and take up our crosses, as Jesus taught in Matthew 16:24. Highlighting the teachings of Dietrich Bonhoeffer from his book ‘The Cost of Discipleship’, we delve into the profound implications of suffering and rejection in the life of a true disciple. Join us as we discuss how prioritizing God's will and the needs of others over our own desires can lead to a more fulfilling and purpose-driven life.
