Uflourish welcomes First Baptist Sulphur Springs, who have come in numbers on their annual summer mission trip from Texas up to the Milwaukee area in order to bless and support the ministries of Uflourish and several other churches in the area. Their pastor, Dr. Jeff Gravens, joins us in our Following Jesus series by diving into the portion of Luke 9 where Jesus calls his disciples to pick up their cross daily in order to follow him. In this daily surrender - a daily death to ourselves and the empty promises of the world - we find a lasting hope and purpose in our passionate pursuit of Jesus.
