Luke 6:12-16; The Twelve Apostles

Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.

The names of the twelve disciples differ in some of the gospels, but the spirit of discipleship remains the same. These were the ones whom Jesus called to share with others the good news. These men, and women, were not well educated, most of them were not from wealthy families; in short, the disciples were simple people. But that did not stop them from doing the work Christ called them to do. Jesus called these people and he sent them out to deliver the good news, to care for the sick and the poor. And they followed that call. We are not Disciples in name only. We are all disciples of Christ, followers of Christ, workers of Christ. Jesus has called us all to be disciples; he has called us all to go out and spread the good news and care for those in need. When you wake up each morning ask yourself the question, 'what can I do to serve Christ today, to be a good disciple?' In that spirit, go out and make more disciples. God bless,

Pastor Josh
