Jesus made many references to the ‘Cross’ before He faced it for Himself. The act of crucifying people was a very common occurrence during N.T. times. (“And sitting ...read more

    Two disciples were challenged to cross the sea of Galilee. It takes faith to cross over, and we must make the crossing if we ever hope to be in God's will. Crossing over is about moving from where we are to where Jesus is.
