Following Jesus is not always easy. Sometimes the road is smooth, but Jesus warns us that sometimes following him requires everything we have--including our lives.

Wanting to save our own lives--while we want to do that--is less important than giving our all in following Jesus.

God's will is clearly laid out in the life and teaching of Jesus. All people are of worth, and injustice is never to be tolerated. Every person is to be welcomed into God's kingdom and is entitled to a fair share of the earth's resources needed to meet life's basic needs.

Following Christ  means being willing to let God transform us--even if that means losing the life we now live in order to live with Christ.
