Ben Green | Mark 8.27-38
[Jesus] called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: ‘Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it. What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul? If anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them when he comes in his Father’s glory with the holy angels.’
This week we begin a new series Rooted disciples based on John Stott's final book, "The radical disciple". The recording begins with service leader Graham Romp, and then Ben, introducing the series. In the sermon, Ben explains the learning process Jesus' disciples went through as he led up to his challenging, but often misunderstood, call to follow him.
An edited video recording of the Sunday service can be viewed on YouTube.
