Invited—Matthew 4:18-22

Pastor Petey preaches that invitations open us to new possibilities, and Jesus’ core invitation "Come, follow me" is an invitation to apprentice under Him by being with Him, becoming like Him, and doing what He does. Following Jesus means leaving behind familiar sources of comfort, identity, and control, not because they are bad, but because Jesus offers a life that is bigger in purpose and better in foundation than anything we cling to. When we receive this invitation ourselves, we are then called to extend it to others, trusting God to bring healing, hope, and transformation through a life shaped by his love.
