Rev. Marty Vershel (5-17-15): Follow, Follow, Follow - Mark 1:14-120

Jesus was always calling on people to follow. A good chunk of the stories end with those familiar words when Jesus said, "Follow me." He said it to Simon Peter and Andrew while they were casting nets into the sea, "Follow." He said it to James and John while they were mending their nets, "Follow." Matthew was sitting in a tax booth, paralytics were sitting on their mats and Saul was sitting blinded on a dusty road, "Follow, Follow, Follow.” The Gospel is a beautiful story and the emphasis is clearly on the word "Follow.” 

In my way of thinking, becoming a Christian is actually quite easy, but following Jesus is the hard part. Adding the name Christian to our spiritual resume is one thing, but being discipled in the way of Jesus, that's quite another. We are called to follow, follow, follow. What does that mean and how will you respond? - Marty Vershel

Rev. Marty Vershel (5-10-15): I'll Take Him - Ephesians 1:3-8

"I have been asked many times why I decided to be a follower of Jesus. People have wondered why I would ever have wanted to become a preacher. Well, the answer is simple. It is found tucked away in a letter Paul wrote to a broken church, filled with flawed people, "For God chose us in him before the creation of the world . . .” (Ephesians 1:4). - Rev. Marty Vershel
