This Sunday

As Jesus began his earthly ministry, a common invitation found in his early interactions with those who would become his followers was simple: “Come and see.” In fact throughout the pages of scripture we see this invitation phrased in a variety of ways from very different people: the woman at the well, Mary grieving over the death of her brother, and even at the tomb after Jesus has been resurrected. Come and see. We are invited to a life lived with Christ, through the highs and the lows. But our assignment doesn’t stop there, for Jesus himself directed Mary Magdalene and the other women quite specifically: “Go and tell.”

How can we best share our stories? How can we invite those around us into life with Christ? And how can we honor Christ well in all of these.
