Why would Jesus call a tax collector—an outcast—to follow him? And why does that matter for us today? Pastor Maron takes us into this transformational moment that still echoes for anyone who feels disqualified or unworthy. Keywords: Matthew the disciple, Jesus calls sinners, tax collector Bible story, call to discipleship, Matthew 9 sermon

In Matthew chapters 8-9 as Jesus demonstrates His authority with miracles, He models what it looks like to labor in His Kingdom harvest field. Then in Matthew 9:37-38 He calls his disciples to “ask the Lord of the harvest” to send out more laborers. This sets up chapter 10 where Jesus sends 12 of His disciples out into ministry on their own.

As this part of Luke wraps up, we get the list of the twelve people Jesus handpicks to be His closest friends and followers—His apostles. Some of the names jump out right away: Peter, James, John. They're all over the gospel stories and go on to become major leaders in the early church. But then there are others—guys like James, son of Alphaeus—who we honestly don't hear anything else about, apart from their names. It's a mix of personalities, backgrounds, and even political views. You've got Matthew, a tax collector who worked for the Romans, and then Simon, a Zealot who probably couldn't stand Rome. That's a pretty wild combo to put on the same team. There's no one type of person Jesus chooses. No spiritual résumé required. Some of these guys had serious doubts, some made huge mistakes, and one of them even betrayed Him. Still, Jesus chose them—flawed, messy, regular people—to be part of His mission. And that's the reminder tucked into these few verses: Jesus can call anyone, and He'll use everyone who's willing to say yes to following Him.

In this sermon, Matthew explores the transformative encounter between Mary Magdalene and the risen Christ at the empty tomb. This message examines how the resurrection fulfills the journey of restoration we explored in our Psalm 51 series, revealing how: Mary's journey from grief to joy mirrors our own spiritual transformations The moment Jesus calls Mary by name demonstrates the deeply personal nature of resurrection faith Christ's commission to Mary connects our restoration to sharing the good news with others Whether you're wrestling with questions, facing darkness in your own life, or simply seeking to deepen your understanding of Easter's significance, this message speaks to the heart of what it means when Jesus calls your name. "Jesus said to her, 'Mary.' She turned toward him and cried out in Aramaic, 'Rabboni!'" - John 20:16

Welcome back to Behind the Mike Podcast for Day 3 of Passion Week. On this intense Tuesday, Jesus returns to the temple and boldly confronts religious hypocrisy. He doesn't hold back—He calls out sin, challenges the leaders, and exposes fake religion.In today's episode, we'll walk through Jesus' confrontations from Matthew 21–23 and the heart-piercing question:

“The experience of ‘being in error' so inevitably accompanies the perception of beauty that it begins to seem one of its abiding structural features. … Something beautiful fills the mind yet invites the search for something beyond itself…”—Elaine Scarry Luke 5:1-11

Jesus Calls the First Disciples 35 The next day again John was standing with two of his disciples, 36 and he looked at Jesus as he walked by and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God!” 37 The two disciples heard him say this, and they followed Jesus. 38 Jesus turned and saw them following and said to them, “What are you seeking?” And they said […]

In this episode, we dive into John 20:11-16, where Mary Magdalene encounters the risen Jesus. Overwhelmed by grief and confusion, she initially fails to recognize Him. We reflect on our own struggles with loss and the longing for answers, and how Jesus gently calls us by name, transforming our sorrow into joy and despair into hope. Discover the profound truth that Jesus knows you personally and is always present, waiting for you to recognize Him. Join the Conversation:We want to hear from you!

My latest reading in the Gospel of Luke

Jake preaches from Luke 4:42-5:11.

Today's Promise: Luke 19:4-5 Jesus cared about individuals. Although he taught the crowds, He always took the time to personally meet the needs of the sick and hurting. When Jesus came across a corrupt tax collector named Zaccheus, He could have condemned him for his corrupt business practices, but He looked past all that to a short little man with a hurting heart. God knows your name. God loves the world, but He loves you just as much. He knows your name and wants a relationship with you.

Mark 1:16-20 

The world would want us to seek revenge and delight in the downfall of the other. Jesus wants us to pray for those hurt us and do good to them. He wants us to forgive. Tough calls from the Lord. But most rewarding. He wants us to live differently.

Jesus had this funny trait--he broke the rules, on purpose. So let's tell some stories about when and why he did that!KIDS! We want to give you a shout out or talk about your question. Send a note to askawaypodcast@gmail.com!ADULTS! There's more for you at the ⁠Kids + Faith Community.

Mark 1:14–20 (Listen) Jesus Begins His Ministry 14 Now after John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of God, 15 and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand;1 repent and believe in the gospel.” Jesus Calls the First Disciples 16 Passing alongside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew the brother of Simon casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. 17 And Jesus said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you become fishers of men.”2 18 And immediately they left their nets and followed him. 19 And going on a little farther, he saw James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, who were in their boat mending the nets. 20 And immediately he called them, and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants and followed him.
