Sunday's sermon, which I turned into a blog post with accompanying audio, video, and notes:

Crowds followed Jesus everywhere—but crowds aren’t the same as disciples.
In the Gospels, people could be near Jesus physically while being far from Him spiritually. Jesus defines discipleship clearly: deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow Him (Luke 9:23; 14:27).
In this message, we look at the difference between being part of the crowd and truly belonging to Christ, and how Simon of Cyrene carrying the cross behind Jesus becomes a living picture of discipleship (Luke 23:26–27).
