The Path of the Disciple: The Weight of the Call

Sermon Title
Is Anything Too Wonderful?

Sermon Message

Jesus sent the disciples out and asked them to trust that the resources that they needed to accomplish their mission were within reach.  He told them to not focus on what they didn’t have or what they couldn’t afford, but to work with what was available to them.  That level of trust is a high calling.  And we often find ourselves falling short by focusing on our limitations or our lack rather than on the abundance that God has already provided to us.  We are called to out-of-the-box thinking, to the creative use of resources, and ultimately to trust that we have enough and we are enough—enough to be disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.  So, let this worship be a time of prayer for deeper trust, for opened eyes, for willing hearts and hands.  Let this time be a time of stirring us up to go and proclaim that the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
