what it means to be a disciple
mt 4:18-22
- who does the calling?
christ invites us
- what are we called to do?
come; follow; be fishers of men;
what does it mean to follow?
- be close, with them, do what they do
what did disciples leave to follow?
- jobs, friends, family, security
why did the follow immediately?
- jesus was a rabbi and to be called by a rabbi is a big deal bc rabbis are the highest in that society
john 1:40-42
- bringing others
john (transfiguration)
- in the high moments
- personal moments
mt26:36-38
- deep, intimate relationship
- with him in the tough moments
mt26:56
- disciples messed up
mt28:16-20
- werent disqualified from his love
- jesus didnt abandon them
what does it look like for me to follow?
what holds me back? what do i have to give up?
benefits?
