Matthew 16:21-28

There's a saying, “Whoever dies with the most toys, still dies.” How true is that? Our society, whether we like to admit it or not, is obsessed with the stuff! Now everybody has different stuff they like, but we all like our stuff! Pastor Mark challenges us in today's message to really consider what we're living for. The things of this world? Or are we living for eternity? When Jesus commanded His disciples to take up their cross and follow Him, what He was saying, was that we need to give up our life, and leave this world behind. Are you willing to do that? Is there anything holding you back from fully surrendering to Jesus?
