DESCRIPTION:
excellent Jazzijai This is easy to read for and easy to put into,action. I highly recommend this to all who want to know more about the meaning of the Lenten season.. Five Stars Excellent book for Lent. His meditations spoke to me and gave me much food for thought.. "Thought provoking" according to Amazon Customer. This was a very helpful and uplifting devotional.
We will see the penance and contrition in “If anyone wishes to come after Me” as we review the facets of a godly life. And finally, we will walk through the ramifications in the simple but profound command: “follow Me.” May we all examine ourselves before our Savior as we seek to serve and honor…The Exalted Christ. Exactly what does that kind of life look like? How do we exalt Christ? The answer can be found in these words: Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me.” (Matthew 16:24 NASB)Over the next 6 weeks, we will walk through an examination of nineteen words spoken by Jesus in Matthew 16:24. We will explore the discipline in “he must deny himself” as we uncover pitfalls obstructing a godly life. We will examine the devotion in “take up his cross” as we discuss tenants of a servant’s life. If we lived our lives having done nothing more than exalt Jesus Christ, it would be a life well lived, a full life, a good life. The Exalted Christ is a Lenten Devotional based on Matthew 16:24.A faithfu
