Denying Me-First Fakery (to Gain God-First Fulfillment)

Denying Me-First Fakery (to Gain God-First Fulfillment)

by Sister Michelle Watson | Oct 1, 2021 | Deny Yourself & Follow Jesus

As a kid, I loved my hardcopy of “A Light in the Attic,” a collection of hilarious poems by the wonderful Shel Silverstein.  One of them is called “Ladies First,” in which a bossy little girl named Pamela Purse pushes her way to the front of the ice cream line,...

Denying Ho-Hum Normal (to Gain the Thrill of Different)

by Sister Michelle Watson | Sep 24, 2021 | Deny Yourself & Follow Jesus

by Sister Michelle Watson | Sep 3, 2021 | Deny Yourself & Follow Jesus

Denying My Goodness (to Gain Christ’s Perfection)

Denying My Goodness (to Gain Christ’s Perfection)

by Sister Michelle Watson | Aug 27, 2021 | Deny Yourself & Follow Jesus

Today’s post is part of Sister Michelle Watson’s series Deny Yourself and Follow Jesus. Let’s start this part of the discussion by taking a good, long look at the rich young ruler. His story appears in Matthew 19, Mark 10, and Luke 18. I loathe...
