CHAPTER 1

DAY 1

the most important question

Jesus said to his disciples, "Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it."

— Matthew 16:24–25

Are you a follower of Jesus?

It's the most important question you will ever answer, and it seems like a good place to begin this journey: Are you a follower of Jesus?

I know. You've been asked
