This year at the church we have been moving our Faith Forward by exploring discipleship in the gospel of Matthew. Near the end of the book of Matthew, Jesus calls his disciples to give special consideration for those on the margins of society, what he calls "the least of these". In taking care of orphans, widows, prisoners, and the like, we have the privilege of serving Jesus, himself. This summer at PLCPC, while Pastor Karla is on Sabbatical, we have the unique opportunity to hear from some of our Christian sisters and brothers who are doing this type of frontline discipleship ministry. The speakers range from those doing ministry to the unhoused, to those releasing people in bondage from human trafficking, to those helping refugees on our own border. Hopefully, you will be inspired and encouraged to take your own step in deeper discipleship by hearing their stories. Wherever God calls, might we all have the courage to answer.
Noel (Noxy) Musicha was born and raised in Lilongwe, Malawi and is Congolese by heritage. He is the co-creator of a small but mighty church among the materially poor and diverse immigrants of San Diego. The church, Ebenezer, is transforming its town with everyday, practical Theology. He has a degree in Biblical studies and communications and a Masters in Public Administration. He also acknowledges playing football professionally, including his short stint with the Malawian National Team, as some of his quality education. Noel currently teaches at the University of San Diego, Pastors the community, and coaches youth football in between. Noel is a father of 3 - Jazarra (11), Theophilus (9), and Israel 6. He is married to his college friend Melissa, also a college and semi-professional football (soccer) player.
This week, Noel inspires us to examine the people who responded to God's call. Men and women who seek after God throughout history have had an uncanny ability to look at the past. God is alive today and doing practical work today in our homes, neighborhoods, cities, and the world. Will you respond to God call on your life?
Passage: Genesis 1:1-4
