Jesus is Our Model | Rev. Wil Cantrell
Description
No matter our age or stage in life, we are being formed by that which we spend time doing, reading, listening, and becoming. Why not be formed by Jesus and use Jesus as the model? Luke 6:40 tells us to be like our teacher, our rabbi, the one for whom we follow.
Our first question is, “What forms us?”. Our second question is, “What do we want to be?”. These are foundational questions we consider as we seek to be like Jesus. It is more than knowing about Jesus or doing as Jesus; it is becoming like Jesus.
Being formed by Jesus is a process, not an event. We are to be with God, as John’s words teach us. We are to love God and love others, as Jesus articulated the greatest commandment. We are to share Christ, serve others, and grow in faith.
Scripture - John 15:1-8; Luke 6:40
