Link to devotionals - https://cliffviewchurch.org/devotionals

What did Jesus really mean when He said, “deny yourself, take up your cross daily, and follow Me”?

In this powerful Milk to Meat episode, we dive deep into Luke 9:23–25 to uncover the meaning, context, and true weight of discipleship.

We unpack Jesus’ call to:

• Deny yourself — rejecting self-rule, ego, comfort, and the old life

• Take up your cross daily — a lifestyle of surrender, obedience, and dying to self-will

• Follow Him — aligning your life with Jesus, His mission, and His ways

You’ll learn how:

– Clinging to your own plans leads to spiritual loss

– Surrendering your life to Jesus leads to true life

– No amount of worldly success can save your soul

– The cross isn’t a moment—it’s a daily posture

– Discipleship is costly, but deeply freeing

This episode brings clarity, challenge, and encouragement for anyone serious about spiritual growth and walking as a true disciple of Jesus.
