Take Up Your Cross: Passion Predictions and Fulfillment (Mark 8:31; 9:31; 10:33–34; 15:22–41)
5:00 PM - 6:00 PMAbstract
The second study naturally leads to the third where Jesus’ boundary breaking ministry culminates in the conquest of his cross. Using his last moments as the lens, we will investigate that to which he is calling his disciples, their reactions, and explore possible contemporary applications of taking up one’s cross.
