Well, how are we different from Jesus first disciples? Well, we have a significant advantage. We know what was accomplished through God's work through Jesus Christ. We know the end of the story. We know that like Jesus' disciples, we have been drawn into God's plan of reconciliation and restoration of creation. And we know that dropping our nets and following Jesus can be nothing but life-giving to us and to others.

Will we continue to grasp tightly onto human sources of security, human-defined identities, and human celebrated values and principles? Will we continue to remain close to the possibility of living under the true reign of God or instead, in a world that perpetuates inequity, greed, hate, and death? In a world where we are all imprisoned by injustice, war, violence, fear, power, oppression, policing, and control. It would be a lie to say that discipleship has no cost.
