Walking with Jesus

Twentieth Sunday after Pentecost, Year B

May this celebration draw you and your congregation into the surprising and beautiful depths of what it means to worship as the Body of Christ in different places and yet all at once.

INTRODUCTION

Walking with Jesus is not only good for the body but also good for the mind. Jesus often asks us to stretch our thinking into new possibilities and understandings. Our walk with Jesus is also good for our senses, as we are invited to see what we had overlooked before, to hear the cries from those often kept silent, and to feel a connection with those in our community whether they are a part of our church or not. We’re exercising our faith as we walk— faith that allows us to see the Spirit at work in us and around us all the time. Walking with Jesus, let’s admit, is good exercise all around.

“Come and see,” he could have said. See through these eyes the wonder of God’s creation. Come and see the needs and the opportunities to serve. Come and see how we can live out the commandment to love our neighbor as ourselves.
