What does it mean to carry your cross?

from The Pulse Podcast with Matthew Ruttan · host Matthew Ruttan

"It's my cross to bear." We use it as an expression. But what did Jesus originally mean when he told his followers to take up their cross? This sermon (also released as a podcast episode) unpacks Mark 8:31-9:1, answers that question, provides a motivating reminder about sacrifice, and suggests a practical application. Take up your electric chair and follow Jesus.
