23 And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and wtake up his cross xdaily, and follow me.
24 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.
What are you in pursuit of?
Are you pursuing Christ?
A person in pursuit
++Stays focused on the goal.

++Work for the goal
++Give to the goal
Most people set goals based upon
++Personal comfort
++Adds Value

Jesus speak of a goal

In the book strong enough to last
Four influences for a Godly Faith
++Family of Faith
++Christian Mentors
++Early ministry involvement (by age 10)
++Church defined as cool
Most are done relatively well
The one thing lacking
The one thing that hinders our effectively touching the next generation
Research showed
++Fully commCommitted
“In most churches it is the willingness for volunteer leaders to give themselves sufficiently to become mentors to the next generation.”
We are compelled to love our neighbor as our self.
The problem is not that we don’t love ourselves.
We love ourselves so much that their is little room for others
The World ask "What's in it for me?"
Love not the world
The World ask "What's in it for me?"
We must guard our hearts from this attitude
Even in the body of Christ there is a what’s in it for me mentality.
If what we do for Christ is only about what we receive we are missing the real meaning of serving him.
5 I am the vine, fye are the branches: eHe that abideth in me, and I in him, the same gbringeth forth much fruit: for ||without me ye can do nothing.
5 I am the vine, fye are the branches: eHe that abideth in me, and I in him, the same gbringeth forth much fruit: for ||without me ye can do nothing.
6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and his withered; and imen gather them, and ijcast them into the fire, and ithey are burned.
We must
++Abide in Christ
++Take our refuge in Him
++Find our hope in Him
A fruitful prayer life
++Is dependent on this connection alone
++Pray has always been family business.
20 Remember the word that I said unto you, mThe servant is not greater than his lord.
If they have persecuted me, nthey will also persecute you; oif they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.

Jesus Set the example

26 eIf any man come to me, and fhate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and ghis own life also, he cannot be my disciple.

27 hAnd whosoever doth not ibear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
20 I am icrucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh hI live by the faith of the Son of God, kwho loved me, and lgave himself for me.
