Welcome to Thursday Evenings at All Hallows. Jesus whose victory over death Christians around the world celebrate this Eastertide and throughout the year, calls men and women, young and old, from all walks of life to come and follow him today as he called the first disciples during his earthly ministry. The first disciples heeded his call at a time when they did not fully understand who he was. Jesus may also call us when we do not fully understand who he is.
The late Sam Shoemaker, an Episcopal priest, writer, and co-founder of Alcoholics Anonymous, offered this advice to university students and others. Follow as much of Jesus as you understand while seeking to understanding him better and to follow him more. He recognized that our understanding of Jesus can grow over time and with the growth of our understanding, our surrender to Jesus' lordship over our lives can grow too. Our lives can become more oriented to Jesus and less to the world. Reading: John 21: 1-14
