The Growing Call of God
On this 13th Sunday after Pentecost, Aug. 18th, 2024, Rev. Matt Sapp, focuses on the growing call of God after having recently baptized five new believers. He begins by reflecting on the call of Isaiah, a vivid and poetic description of experiencing God's presence. He then turns to Matthew chapter 4, where Jesus calls His first disciples, encouraging everyone to bring their Bibles to church for a deeper engagement with the scripture.
Matt also introduces the 48-hour challenge, encouraging our congregation to spend 48 hours on Sundays with us over the next year, dedicating time to worship and Bible study. This commitment is not just for personal growth but also to enhance the shared experience of worship for everyone.

As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. "Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will send you out to fish for people." At once they left their nets and followed him. Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John. They were in a boat with their father Zebedee, preparing their nets. Jesus called them, and immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him.
