It’s Not About You

The cross is not a method for our personal and private “salvation.” The cross is not the pattern or template for Christian discipleship. While it is completely accurate to affirm Jesus as Savior and Lord…Jesus is MUCH MORE.  Jesus is our SOURCE and RESOURCE.  Jesus is our LIFE. So, that changes everything about how we […]
