discipleship

In one of the Bible’s most misunderstood passages, Jesus invites his followers to look beyond the family to our common purpose.
-
Jesus sends the disciples out into the world with nothing to wear or eat so that they would receive hospitality as much as they offer it.
-
Jesus sends his disciples out to do the things he does, which, at this point is stuff that has been blowing their ever-loving minds.
-
The vision Jesus offers the disciples, of seeing themselves as laborers in the fields is one we hear with baggage and sincere hope.
-
Returning to an earlier point in the gospel of Matthew, we are invited to a moment in which Jesus is doing one radical act after another.
-
Jesus pushes back at the impulse to focus our attention on one another, to the people who are good, while forgetting our love for everyone else.
