Lose Your Life // Series:The Jesus Way

CrossPoint Church

Are you trying to hold onto control too tightly? Just like trying to grip a bike harder actually makes it more difficult to ride, the harder we try to control life, the harder it gets. Preaching Minister Kale Courtright wraps up "The Jesus Way" series by exploring why true Christian life begins with learning how to surrender and give up some control. We dive into Mark 8 as Jesus issues the challenging invitation to become his disciple, calling us to deny ourselves and take up our cross. Discover why pursuing individual happiness through self-interest is a "treadmill of self" that never stops, and how following Jesus's counterintuitive call to lose your life is the only way to save it and find peace.
