“Commissioned"

June 4, 2023 • Rev. Katherine B. Harrington • Matthew 28:16–20

In Matthew 28:16-20, the Risen Jesus gives some final instructions to the eleven remaining disciples. They are to go and make disciples, baptize, and teach all that Jesus has commanded. We who call ourselves disciples today are a result of their ministry, and we too receive the same commission from Jesus. But Jesus also gives a promise before he leaves, as well. What is that promise and how does it help us live into all that Jesus is commissioning us to do?
