Follow Me: The Inclusivity of the Call - Ken Wetmore Jesus’ call to follow is not a “one-size-fits-all” endeavor, as demonstrated by his conversation with Mary and Martha. Jesus called sex workers, tax collectors, fishermen, and many others who, according to tradition, served Jesus’ mission in ways unique to them–but all were part of the movement forward. Let us know your thoughts by reaching out...

Follow Me: The Cost, Part II - Ken Wetmore What happens when the cost is too much? What happens when Jesus asks for something that we think is too precious to give?

This week one of our #WholeLifeReflections asked: What is your greatest earthly tr...

I'm On My Way to the Canaan Land - Furman Fordham, Jr. Salvation is both delivering out of (justification) and bringing into (glorification), which like the Hebrew’s journey from Egypt to Canaan, includes being taken through (sanctification). Strange things happen, however, as we are going through—things like yearning to return to Egypt. But praise God, another strange thing that happens as we go...

Follow Me: The Called - Anderline Bredy Jesus called disciples from many walks of life. Perhaps the most surprising was Matthew, a reviled tax collector.
