Shifting Our Expectations
•
SMC preachers
Jesus’ guide for discipleship invites us to rethink our expectations of what discipleship means and who disciples are. Embedded in the invitation is a deep look meeting the soul of our being with enduring love and perpetual hospitality to embrace the next steps of faith-filled following the Jesus Way.
