Reverend Dan is preaching.
Luke 9:57-62, Matthew 7:13-14

 

In this first Sunday of Lent we are on the journey to Jerusalem, the cross and ultimately and empty tomb.  

It is a journey that most people are not excited to take.  It means suffering, shame, pain, and many times sacrifice and self-denial.  Following Jesus is not easy and Jesus made it clear from the beginning that it wasn’t intended to be.  Jesus tells us that the gate that leads to destruction is wide and many will take it, the road that leads to life is narrow and few will find it.  We are hesitant to follow Jesus.
