Follow Me, Matthew 4:19 - Sunday, October 23, 2011

Pastor Bill Ritchie

In today's world, sometimes we wonder what it means to "follow Jesus." Let's be honest, we read about Jesus walking up to people on the road and telling them to follow Him, and it comes off as a little strange. Can you imagine being at work, pouring over spreadsheets and answering phones, and a guy pokes his head in your office and says, "Follow Me." Would you get up from your desk and go? Probably more likely you would look up and say, "Are you for real? Is this some kind of a joke?"

The Bible tells us that every day Jesus is reaching out to us and
asking us to follow, and not only as individuals, but together as a
church body. The harder part is knowing how to do that. So many of us want to go after Him, but we want to know what that looks like. Come this Sunday to find out! Pastor Bill will walk us through Matthew 4, and help us understand not only what it looks like to follow Jesus, but where He is leading us. He will also be sharing some exciting news about how God is leading us as a church body in the future.
