This Sunday's Gospel reading is a perhaps familiar story of Jesus calling disciples to follow him. But rather than picking the elite of society, the cream of the crop of potential recruits, Jesus chooses a few ordinary fishermen. It’s a surprising choice for starting a movement, but it’s consistent with the way God typically works. Over and over in Scripture, we read stories of God choosing flawed people. As a church full of ordinary, flawed people, that’s good news for us!
Today's Scripture readings are Isaiah 6:1-9, 1 Corinthians 15:1-11, and Luke 5:1-11.
