He then began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and that he must be killed and after three days rise again. He spoke plainly about this, and Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. But when Jesus turned and looked at his disciples, he rebuked Peter. “Get behind me, Satan!” he said. “You do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns.” Then he 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?

Pursuing our spouse helps us keep getting to know, understand, and love them well. We’re all created with a desire to be deeply known and fully loved. Only God can fully fulfill this, yet as our most intimate human relationship, marriage is an opportunity to continue growing in intimacy and love throughout all our days together. This 3-day plan written by Lindsay Few brings encouragement to pursue your spouse well.
In a culture that values comfort and self-determination above all else, the idea of “denying yourself and taking up your cross” to follow Jesus is scandalous. But as Jesus showed us, that is exactly what it takes to walk in the way of abundant life. Part 3 of 4 of Feed's Scandal of the Gospel series.

Everybody knows somebody who never grew up and while immaturity can me fun and silly at times, it gets old pretty quickly. God has a plan for us to move beyond the early stages of faith and into a mature faith that stands strong when trouble comes. Don't stay young in faith. Trust the process that leads to growth and become the person you already know you want to become.
