October 22, 2023 • Pastor George Gasperson • Luke 5:27–28
In these verses, Jesus invited Levi the tax collector to follow Him. What does it mean, and what does it look like in our day and time to follow Jesus?

It will sometimes require you to go where you wouldn’t choose to go. But He is leading you, and it will always be the best way. That’s what walking by faith is like. Now that you know what it means to be a genuine, honest to goodness follower of Jesus… are you one? If not, would you like to become one? Jesus is ready to lead if you are ready to follow.
