Take Up Your Cross & Follow Me

Kevin West July 23, 2021 Recent Thoughts

Recently I’ve been thinking about the call of Jesus to take up our cross and follow Him.  Truthfully, I don’t like that verse — probably not many of us do.  But I don’t think I really understood it.  And honestly, I probably have never spent enough time thinking about it to understand it.

However, you can’t get away from the fact that the Gospel of Jesus is self-denial, but the gospel of Kevin (and this culture) is self-fulfillment and entitlement — comfort.
