This sermon was on the theme of self-denial in observance of the season of Lent. It was based on John 12:24 “… unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it abides alone…” The message focused on the example of Jesus as He steadily walked toward the cross, and on His call for disciples to die to self-centered desires.
