A sermon from Father Michael Novotny. Hebrews 9:24–28 . Live like you’ve been forgiven.
How much do you love your life? As we approach Holy Week Jesus tells us that those who love their lives will lose them, while those who hate their lives will gain them. This week’s message from Beeson Divinity School founder Dr. Timothy George helps us understand how vital this concept is to our grasp of the gospel.
What is discipleship? When Jesus called the apostles to make disciples, what was he calling them to do? We often mistakenly think that discipleship is simply learning more information about Jesus. This week’s message from Fr. Michael Novotny challenges us to think about discipleship, not as information, but as imitation. Who are you following today?
Jesus was and is a missionary. He is seeking disciples. This week’s gospel text is Matthew 4:12-22 and tells the story of Jesus calling his first disciples. “Follow me,” He said, “and I will make you fishers of men.” What was Jesus talking about? What does fishing for men have to do with calling disciples? Listen to this week’s message by Fr. Gerry McDermott, titled “Fishing Lessons.”
The blind man, Bartimaeus, sought Jesus for healing and found him. When Jesus healed him, he told him, “Go your way…” Mark tells us that Bartimaeus then followed Jesus “on the way.” Likewise, Christians are to seek, find, and follow Jesus, not just once, but over and over again. Listen to Rev. Michael Novotny’s homily “Seek, Find, Follow, Repeat.”
