07 – “The Way of Sacrifice” (Follow: Finding New Life on Ancient Paths)
Jesus taught that those who seek to save their lives will lose them, while those who are willing to lose them, or give them away, for his sake will save them. This is one of the most counter intuitive truths of the historically orthodox Christian faith; The way of sacrifice leads to the most lively, meaningful, and fulfilling life possible — what we might call happiness. However, that is less surprising when we consider the path that Jesus walked on his way to the Cross. In this message Pastor Brad unpacks the connection between sacrifice and a life worth living.
