Photini MillerThe Gospel for that day hits hard — “deny himself and take up his cross.” I always find it easier to read than to actually do on a normal Thursday at the shop. Anyone else have a particular verse from Matthew 16 that stays with you?

Matthew CampbellYeah, that “deny himself” line always gets me too. I read it over coffee most mornings, but by the time I’m out in the garden pulling weeds it’s a lot harder to remember. Which part of Matthew 16 sticks with you the most — the cross, the losing your life to save it, or something else?
