Jesus spent several years with His disciples, and these men along with others watched Jesus. They saw how he responded when He was discouraged. They noticed how He responded to those who were unfriendly to Him. They learned how He cared for children and the marginalized. Over those years, these disciples gradually became imitators of Christ. This call to follow Christ is a call to not merely follow once, but rather it is a call to keep on following. Those of us who are gradually learning to be imitators of Christ are discerning what is relevant and what is irrelevant. What seems to be the case is what is relevant to the world is mostly irrelevant to Jesus, and what is relevant to Jesus is mostly irrelevant to the world. For example, Jesus encourages us to put others first and to care after the needs of the marginalized. The world would tell us that we should look out for ourselves and scramble for places of honor. I've resolved over the years to reflect upon those things that I know are relevant to Jesus and make them relevant to me even if those around me do not share my same ambition. As we continue to follow Christ together, I pray that we walk this road together as individuals and as a church.

    This year is my 30th anniversary.  Something very special happened to me thirty years ago this year.  Anniversaries are important, aren't they?  They commemorate weddings, birthdays, the start of a job, and other things that we want to remember.  We remind ourselves of these events by marking them in our calendars.  Thirty years ago on May 15, 1983, I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior.  It was in a small Sunday school room in Western Pennsylvania at 10:50 in the morning.

    As I reflect about that day along with the days and years that followed, I realize many things on so many different levels.  I rejoice that God gave me an opportunity to respond to His love.  I am elated that a Sunday school teacher was willing to give me an opportunity to respond to that love.  And I celebrate the faithfulness of God throughout the years to bring me to a place such as St Paul to serve with such wonderful people.

    It was that day when Jesus said "Follow me" like He had with so many others including Philip whose story unfolds in John 1:43.  In this verse we are reminded of the persistent pursuit of God for us: A pursuit that invites us to follow Him.  Over the years I've wondered what it really means to follow Jesus, and I've come to the conclusion that following Him centers around a willingness to imitate Him.  Jesus spent several years with His disciples, and these men along with others watched Jesus.  They saw how he responded when He was discouraged.  They noticed how He responded to those who were unfriendly to Him.  They learned how He cared for children and the marginalized.  Over those years, these disciples gradually became imitators of Christ.

    This call to follow Christ is a call to not merely follow once, but rather it is a call to keep on following.  Those of us who are gradually learning to be imitators of Christ are discerning what is relevant and what is irrelevant.  What seems to be the case is what is relevant to the world is mostly irrelevant to Jesus, and what is relevant to Jesus is mostly irrelevant to the world.  For example, Jesus encourages us to put others first and to care after the needs of the marginalized. The world would tell us that we should look out for ourselves and scramble for places of honor.  I've resolved over the years to reflect upon those things that I know are relevant to Jesus and make them relevant to me even if those around me do not share my same ambition.  As we continue to follow Christ together, I pray that we walk this road together as individuals and as a church.
