If we could share a meal with anyone, most of us would choose someone famous or successful. We’d all like to pick the brain of someone who is famous for being really good at something we are into—like a famous athlete or musician. At the juncture at which we meet Jesus in this session, He was actually becoming pretty famous for His profound teaching and miraculous works. He was the kind of person who was well-known enough that He could have shared meals with all sorts of important people if he had wanted to—but He didn’t. Instead, Jesus called fishermen to follow Him and ate meals with “sinners and tax collectors.” Jesus rarely conforms to our expectations. Jesus specifically reached out to outcasts and so should we.
