True discipleship begins with recognizing that our life's purpose is not found in wealth, status, or even family, but in being united to the Lamb of God. Like John the Baptist, we must point away from ourselves and toward Jesus, the only one who takes away the sin of the world. When we ask, "Where are you staying?" we discover that Jesus abides in His Word and sacraments. Following Him means moving from seeking self-affirmation to receiving His redemption. In Christ, our purpose is renewed and our security is eternal, as He transforms every earthly blessing from a false god into a gift.
