Always good to hear from another Klingsnorth fan!. I've been following him from long before his mutton to Orthodoxy, when he spent most of his time raging against the "Machine". I find following both his and your journeys of faith enlightening and deeply encouraging. Please keep it up!
Here's a link to a podcast with more insights as to what was really happening when Peter and Andrew left John to follow Jesus: https://www.bemadiscipleship.com/253
I recall the parable of the laborers in the field... those called first worked all day, those at the end of the day, maybe only one hour... those at the end, were called by the owner first and got that a day's wage... those called at the beginning who agreed to work for a day's wage, also got a day's wage and complained... Ha, I will not complain for you making your content open to all. Thanks for writing, Mark! I look forward to reading this each week.
Hi Mark, I just wanted to say that I loved what you have written in today's post. You created a lovely picture of helping others to see Jesus and come to know him. It was a simple and powerful way to show what we should be doing. Thank you for the second half that let us know that there is evidence of a resurgence of interest in Jesus. I have not seen it in our city but I hope that as the anxiety grows with all that is going in this world, that more will look to Jesus for the solution, to find forgiveness, meaning and hope. This was a very encouraging post. Thank you. (David Hermann)
