The Walk!

Contributed by Tony Abram on Oct 3, 2008

The Walk (Luke 9:23 KJV) And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

Don't Look Back?? Series

Contributed by Scott Chambers on Sep 27, 2011

Tagging Along Or Truly Following Jesus

Contributed by Greg Nance on Mar 1, 2008

Jesus called disciples to follow him. What did he really mean by "follow me"? Luke 9 gives us some insight.

We need to ask ourselves, am I just tagging along or truly following Jesus? When Jesus says to us, ...read more
