✦ MADE SIMPLE

Here's the thing — if you're constantly trying to protect and preserve your own life, you'll actually lose what matters most. But if you're willing to give up your life for me and for sharing the good news, that's when you'll truly find life.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

The life you're trying to save might be the very thing keeping you from actually living.
