Take Up Your Cross | Practicing the Way
Description
This week we’ll study Luke 9:21-27 under the theme “Take Up Your Cross.” Jesus’ call to discipleship is startlingly clear: following Him requires daily self-denial and cross-bearing. We’ll explore what this means (and doesn’t mean), why the cost of refusing Him is far greater than the cost of obedience, and how this difficult path paradoxically leads to true freedom and joy.
SERIES SUMMARY: This series is based on the best-selling Christian book, Practicing the Way, by John Mark Comer. This work guides Christians toward spiritual formation by following the lifestyle of Jesus — through intentional practices like silence, sabbath, simplicity, and community. It emphasizes becoming like Jesus by doing what he did, integrating faith into everyday life through rhythm, discipline, and deep apprenticeship.
