"If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their
cross and follow me."
(Mark 8:34
NRSV)
Wearing a cross might be an important witness for some people. Or even an important reminder.
There is nothing wrong with wearing a cross. But bearing a cross has to do with a total
commitment of all we are and all we hope to be to the service of the One who created us and died
for us.
