Jesus told the crowds time and time again that, in order to be His disciples, they must deny themselves, take up their crosses, and follow Him. At Cleary, we believe that being a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ means more than simply repeating a prayer, filling out a card, and joining the church. We believe that being a disciple costs us everything. Why else would Jesus have encouraged His followers to count the cost? (Luke 14:25-33) We long for something more than religion at Cleary. We long to make fully devoted disciples of Christ who are denying themselves, taking up their crosses daily and following Him by rejecting the prosperity, power, and pleasures of this life to embrace the great commandment of our Lord (Mark 12: 28-31). We are longing to be and produce true, biblical disciples. We invite you to come pursue Him with us in radical obedience!
