What Jesus needs is for us to say yes to his most consistent invitation, which is to follow every step of the way. And in fact, He’s got this really difficult challenge. He doesn’t just say follow. He says, ‘Take up your cross and follow.’ ” -Jay Y. Kim

“God has not called me to be successful. He has called me to be faithful.” -Jay Y. Kim
