HOW TO GAIN THE WHOLE WORLD // Matthew 16:21-28
About this episode
This episode discusses the contrast between cultural values of wealth and status versus the teachings of Jesus on self-denial and true happiness.
Our culture consistently whispers that true happiness is found in acquiring "just a little bit more" of wealth, status, and comfort; yet, Jesus modeled and taught a completely upside-down ethic. True life is not gained by successfully satisfying our selfish concerns, but by willingly denying ourselves, taking up our cross, and losing our lives for His sake. Are you trading the eternal value of your soul for the temporary vapor of earthly gain, or have you discovered the profound freedom of surrendering everything to follow Jesus Christ?
