Following Jesus to the Cross: What Are You?

This passage is what I call a sandwich passage. Here is what I mean. It has a beautiful and touching story that in the middle…but it is sandwiched between 2 ugly stories! Yet, they are all part of the same story. It is this sandwiching that creates the contrast so that we can clearly see the ugly as well as the beauty! It is the “sandwich effect” that helps us to see the 3 types of people that are following Jesus to the cross! It is why we are asking WHAT ARE YOU?
