In Mark 15, we see how people respond to Jesus in very different ways—some reject Him as King, others receive Him. One of those people is Simon of Cyrene, who was forced to carry Jesus’ cross. Was it just an inconvenient moment in his day—or could it have been the turning point of his life? This chapter reminds us that each response to Jesus matters, and sometimes, what feels like a burden is actually a call.
