Calling and Sending

Pastor Sean Blomquist, Shelter Covenant Church (Concord)

As I wrote earlier regarding Chapter 2 of Mark, we see a rhythm with Jesus. It is always an invitation to relationship and a challenge to responsibility. Here in Chapter 6, Jesus is calling his disciples to a deeper relationship with himself. The invitation to you and me is that there is always more of HIMSELF to which he is calling us. If we are stagnant in our relationship with Jesus, it’s often an issue of hearing him. He is always calling us to himself. He is the God who calls. As a disciple, am I listening?
