Last Sunday John Perrine led us through the Lenten theme of Dying to Self, exploring Jesus’ invitation to take up our crosses and follow him. This is a difficult and complicated task.
For those of you who missed it, or for those of you who’d like to revisit all we learned, here is the podcast of John’s message –
Here are the three key thoughts John shared with us at the end about how to die to self!
- Don’t kill everything that you enjoy in your life, simply because something might need to die.
- The journey of Dying in order that we might live looks different for each person.
- To identify what God is inviting you to die to, pay attention to your areas of greatest resistance or the things that make you defensive.
Grace and Peace to you as you practice!
