If Christ came and set an example of love and self-sacrifice, what does that mean for the rest of us who say we’re following his lead?

Shouldn’t at least SOME of Christ’s way of life rub off on us? Of course it should, if we’re doing the Christian thing right.

Of course, anything that requires commitment that involves saying yes to one thing will automatically require saying ‘no’ to something else. Join a gym and take it seriously, you won’t be cleaning out the dessert section at the buffet table. Take a job offer across the country, you won’t be living among the friends and neighbors you’re used to.`If you take a spouse, you’re leaving the dating game behind.

Faith is no different. If we’re walking the walk with Jesus, there will have to be some changes in how we live our lives. And since he went to the cross to save us from a sin nature baked so deeply into us that we can’t just shake it like a bad habit, some of those changes go right to the heart of who we are.

There’s good news about those changes. We’re not doing it in our own strength.
