In Matthew 16, we read of Jesus Christ preaching about what is expected of his disciples. In the same way an athlete or solider may be told what is expected of them as being a part of a team or army, Jesus gives clear instruction on the terms of service for his disciples. In this first message, Brother Luke looks at what is arguably the most challenging part of discipleship – denying yourself. In a world that encourages self-focus, coupled with a sinful nature that has a desire to put ourselves before others, we may find being a disciple much more difficult than we thought.
