The big lie that infects millions in the West and other parts of the world has been magnified by an unprecedented form of secularism that advocates human flourishing as its only objective – and nothing can be allowed to stand it its way. In stark contrast to this culture of self-aggrandizement, Jesus tells us to pick up our cross, to sacrifice and to deny ourselves. Bearing the cross is an essential part of being Jesus’ disciple, and it is in losing our life for His sake that we find wholeness, meaning, maturity, joy and so much more.
