Deny Yourself, Take Up Your Cross, and Follow Me
from Sermons at Smoky Row Brethren Church
The meaning of Jesus' teaching on self-denial and taking up crosses is fairly straight forward: following Jesus means inviting trial and persecution. This is an example of a simple command that is just very difficult to obey. Join pastor Cory in a reflection on what it means to deny ourselves, why it is so difficult, and why it remains good news to follow Jesus.
