Episode 25 – Sent Ones

As Jesus prepares to enter the places where God’s restoration, welcome, and healing are longed for, he sends ordinary folk to prepare his way. In her sermon, Pastor Amy reminds us, Jesus doesn’t send them with a list of expected outcomes or accomplishments to work toward, only the instruction to go empty handed and to seek others who share peace; to eat with them, to work them, and to offer whatever healing presence they have to give. Jesus’ instructions are intended for us as well!
