When Jesus first spoke of His coming suffering, rejection, and death, Peter could not accept it. Yet Jesus made clear that the way of the Messiah is also the way of the disciple: “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.” These words remind us that following Christ is not about comfort or self‑preservation, but about surrender, sacrifice, and trust. To lose our life for His sake is to find true life, anchored in the hope of resurrection. Join us as Pastor Kenny shares how this passage calls us to a deeper discipleship—one that embraces the cross as the path to glory.
