As we continue our post-Christmas sermon series called “Why Be Christian?” we might remember what we’ve explored so far. We began in the baptismal waters alongside Jesus, who entered the waters to show us the way to God’s abundant life. We listened for the voice of God alongside Samuel, Philip, and Nathanael. With Jonah, Simon, Andrew, James, and John, we received the persistent and grace-filled invitation to participate with God in living out the fullness of God’s kingdom here and now. As we continue, we learn that God draws leaders from the nurturing experience of community, and that community is essential for our life of faith.
Scripture: Deuteronomy 18:15-20; Mark 1:21-28 (CEB)
