EP 81: Comfort Isn’t the Call | In Totality with Megan Ashley

Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.” - Luke 9:23 In this episode, I’m diving into something the Lord has been pressing on my heart: Jesus didn’t call us to comfort, he called us to carry a cross. I share a story that started off as a fun little birthday bike ride… and turned into a full-blown sermon from the Holy Spirit. What I thought would be an easy, scenic trip ended up showing me so much about the reality of the Christian walk, it’s not easy, and it’s not supposed to be. If you’ve ever felt tired, or caught off guard by how hard following Jesus can be, I want you to know, you’re not alone!
