Many first century leaders rejected Jesus for the very thing that we all need him most to be: a friend of sinners like us. Yet Jesus was without sin. How did he do it? He learned and obeyed every iota of God’s word.

Empires rise and fall, but only Christ and his kingdom will remain. Come what may, we must be loyal to Jesus first and second to his bride, the church. Other loyalties must never interfere with these.

Jesus is still sending out his people as his advance team. Those mission partners we support on the other side of the world aren't the only missionaries from our parish. Every baptized member of the church is a missionary, and we all have important work to do in Jesus' name.

Luke 10:1-16

The Rev. Sulmane Maigadi, Assistant Rector

Jesus says that you must become like a little child to enter God's kingdom, which makes it hard for people like us - especially if we're wealthy. The man who inquired with Jesus about his own fate went away sad because he was rich, yet he lacked one thing. Jesus directed him to sell his possessions, give to the poor, and follow him. True disciples of Jesus don't give him only 10%; they happily lay 100% before the one who was rich, but who became poor, so that we in our poverty might become rich in him.

Are you a pathological saver? If so, Jesus wants to help you before it's too late. Jesus thinks about money in the very same way that he does about table fellowship. Money isn't for saving, but for making friends. Use your treasures for growing his kingdom, particularly by adding more "undesirables" like us.
