The Path of the Disciple: Learning to Grow

Fourth Sunday after Pentecost, Year A

“What you hear whispered, proclaim from the housetops” (Matthew 10:27). This week, we’ve got whispers and we’ve got shouts. That seems like a common human experience, doesn’t it?

Becoming a disciple of Jesus Christ isn’t an instantaneous event, but a lifelong process. John Wesley called it “sanctification,” this process of becoming more like Christ, and acknowledged that it is a journey. But we’re on the way or, as Wesley claimed, moving on to perfection in love. We have a lot to learn as we grow.

Fourth Sunday after Pentecost, Year A

We celebrate the God with us, who speaks to us, if only in whispers. We give thanks that we are not alone as we proclaim with grace and hospitality that the kin-dom of God is near; indeed, it is among us in whispers.
