Does Christianity Call For A Life Of Abundance Or A Life Of Denial And Self-Sacrifice?

The example that Jesus set for His followers was one of living a life of self-denial and self-sacrifice.  But there are also verses where Jesus promises blessings, peace and even a life most abundant for Christians.  So, which is it, a life of self-sacrifice or a life of abundance?  Can it be both?  In this podcast Andy uses scripture to dissolve the apparent tension between these two options, explaining the abundant Christian life and how we achieve it.
