    Take Up My Cross And Follow Me

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Apr 16, 2015

     | 7,397 views

    Though we fall again and again, it is the getting up that marks the true child of God. So, we offer our lives in surrender to Christ’s purpose. The waters of our baptism renew in us the willing spirit that says, “Yes” to our own taking up the cross.

    In the famous words of the late American news commentator Paul Harvey, Matthew 16:21-28 is “the rest of the story”. It is a continuation from Matthew 16:13-20, in which Peter acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God. Now Jesus is telling his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem to ...read more

    Another Brick In The Wall

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 10, 2025
     | 100 views

    Faith is a journey, not a point. God leads us to the wall so we can meet our dark side, accept His acceptance, and discover the freedom of unconditional love.

    (The Journey of Grace) Draw me nearer, nearer, blessed Lord, to the cross where Thou hast died. Draw me nearer, nearer, blessed Lord, to Thy precious bleeding side. That hymn has been echoing in my heart all week. And it leads me to a question: When is close—close enough? --- 1. The Journey, ...read more
