What did Jesus really mean when He said, “deny yourself, take up your cross daily, and follow Me”?

In this powerful Milk to Meat episode, we dive deep into Luke 9:23–25 to uncover the meaning, context, and true weight of discipleship.

We unpack Jesus’ call to:

• Deny yourself — rejecting self-rule, ego, comfort, and the old life

• Take up your cross daily — a lifestyle of surrender, obedience, and dying to self-will

• Follow Him — aligning your life with Jesus, His mission, and His ways

You’ll learn how:

– Clinging to your own plans leads to spiritual loss

– Surrendering your life to Jesus leads to true life

– No amount of worldly success can save your soul

– The cross isn’t a moment—it’s a daily posture

– Discipleship is costly, but deeply freeing

This episode brings clarity, challenge, and encouragement for anyone serious about spiritual growth and walking as a true disciple of Jesus.

Discover the true, biblical meaning of repentance—not as a quick apology, but as a lifelong journey of returning to God. In this Milk to Meat episode, we explore the Hebrew concept of Tishuvah, a joyful and continuous pursuit of coming back to the Father again and again.

Through the story of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11–24), we see how repentance requires a turning point, a long walk home, and a heart willing to leave the old life behind. True repentance is not just regret, not a quick fix, and not merely saying “I’m sorry”—it’s a decisive return to God that leads to restoration.

We also discuss why repentance is essential in our relationship with Jesus, especially at salvation, and Travis shares his powerful testimony of living as a prodigal and finding his way back to the Father’s embrace.

If you want a deeper, richer understanding of repentance and spiritual transformation, this episode will guide you from surface-level remorse to true biblical return.
