What does it actually mean to deny yourself, take up your cross daily, and follow Jesus? In this episode of Between Sermons, Pastor Brent McQuay, Ti'heasha Beasley, and Tiffany Hines unpack Luke 9:18–26 and have an honest conversation about the real cost of discipleship. They talk about surrendering control, chasing platforms and success, trusting God when His plan doesn’t look like yours, choosing discipline over comfort, and why taking up your cross means much more than simply enduring life's problems.
They also wrestle with the question many Christians face: How do I actually surrender to God every day? From prayer and Scripture to community and accountability, this conversation gets practical about following Jesus when obedience is difficult. And while discipleship requires sacrifice, Jesus isn't calling us into an empty life... He's leading us into an abundant one. If you've ever struggled with control, disappointment with God, dying to your own plans, or wondering what following Jesus really requires, this episode is for you.
