Matthew 9:9-13, 18-26 | The saying goes, “There’s only so many hours in the day.” With varied commitments that we all carry, it can be challenging to attend to everything that needs our attention let alone think about living out our call as disciples of Jesus. And yet, God desires more than a portion of our lives. God calls us to follow with the whole of our being so that we might live in God’s promised fullness, and so that those around us – even the most unlikely of people – might be brought into the fold of God’s care. As a fellow seeker of Christ, join us as we wrestle with what discipleship means, and as we once again experience God’s hand outstretched to us – making us whole.
