Matthew 4:12-23 Jesus begins preaching... filling in a space left when John the Baptist had been arrested... and says God's Kingdom should change your life
Matthew 4:18-22 when Jesus calls Simon and Andrew, to James and John, to be disciples and fishers of people
Poem: "The road not taken" by Robert Frost
Last week we thought about how we are called to be working with God to create a world that treats all people equally, that it is in doing things together that we are most succesful.
Today, we recognize that being church in the world is not an easy task. Living in ways that hold and honour all people goes against the way that much of society is acting at the moment.
How do we find the courage to choose better words, to make better choices, to teach ourselves how to put others first?
