Many dazzlingly eloquent words have been written and spoken lately about Christ's "Passion" %u2013 both the Mel Gibson movie and the Real Thing. Indeed, viewing "The Passion of the Christ" is powerfully rekindling many believers' appreciation for what Jesus endured for their sakes.
Question: Will this roaring fire of gratitude for Christ's suffering and death on the cross also rekindle %u2013 or ignite for the first time %u2013 a fire in the belly of believers for "taking up the cross" themselves?
