Your Greatest Temptation by Pete Wilson Luke 14:25-27 Jesus makes a distinction between salvation and discipleship. Salvation is about coming to the cross and trusting Jesus. Discipleship is about carrying the cross and following Jesus. Luke 10:27 John 15:17 Jesus is using hyperbole to make a point. He’s exaggerating in these scriptures to make the […]
I’m a little late in posting March’s book of the month, but I was pretty sure I knew it needed to be this book. I just needed to finish it first. I told you a few weeks ago that I thought this book would be life-changing. I feel like I’ve already won an insecurity battle […]
