Some definitions of detachment are: “a severing of a relationship; a parting, a disentanglement with something, the separation of something, disengaging yourself from something or someone.”

What is the heaviest burden you've ever carried?

The key idea is that in order to be a disciple, we must sever or disentangle anything from our lives that holds us back from fully yielding our lives to God.

We are called to love others not as we love ourselves, but as God loves us. It is this badge of love that we wear every day of our lives and that sets us apart from the world.

Devotion to Jesus means that we are willing to suffer for His sake.

Every Christian is called to live a life of discipleship. In fact, Dr. Stanley calls discipleship, “the mission and the ministry of the church.”

What does it mean to be a disciple?

Be confident that you can receive help, no matter your burden.

We can travel on the path that God has prepared for us, or we can take a different path of our own choosing.

Do you know what trail you are on and where you are going?
