Mark 8:27-38

This sermon explores three key aspects of true discipleship in the context of Mark 8:27-38. Firstly, it emphasizes that knowing Jesus requires a personal revelation from the Holy Spirit. Secondly, it highlights that suffering is an inevitable part of the disciple's mission, even for those who are walking in God's will. Pastor Juniece uses the example of Peter's reaction to Jesus's prediction of his suffering to illustrate this point. Lastly, she emphasizes that true discipleship requires a complete shift in one's priorities, moving from self-centeredness to following Jesus. This entails denying oneself, taking up one's cross, and actively pursuing a lifestyle of following Jesus in every area of life.
