Jesus taught His disciples that in order to own your faith, you must lose your life to a process. This process is a daily relinquishing of your will, desires, and your greatest loves.
in Luke 9:23, Jesus told us that owning a piece of the discipleship pie, meant that there was a daily disciple‘s cross that awaited us. He points us in the direction of the cross, because owning means dying to self.
