When Jesus asked 2 questions of the disciples, the second one was harder for the disciples to speak up about.  Well, all but Peter actually…what he said is more than fodder for what we need say about we believe…when someone asks us:  “You go to church don’t you?  Do you really believe Jesus is the savior of the world?  What DO you believe?”  Speak Up

Matthew 16:16-20

Walking on water is about courage, faith boldness…but ‘trying harder’ AS PETER DID, doesn’t address the steadiness of the disciples (and their trying harder as they pulled their oars against the wind and waves. What’s more it doesn’t allow us to see where Jesus was and what he DID in this passage. Jesus was a very present help in time of trouble…to the one who stepped from the boat and the ones who stayed inside it. Jesus’ presence and power is the key to this passage not whether we have the faith and courage to step out of the boat.

Matthew 14:22-23

What a treat to begin this sermon series outside on a “mount” hill!  It was an amazing experience.  Stay Tuned!

Matthew 5: 1-12

Jesus is placing us in a place of welcome. Wherever we go we aren’t necessarily the “welcomers”.  We are being welcomed (or not).  It’s a promise all of you give other people an opportunity to hear your stories.  We are called to take our welcome and offer it to others to receive (or not), to welcome (or not). We are called to tell our stories even at the risk of rejection. What if we took our call, our faith stories out “there.”?

Mathew 10: 40-42
