Subject of Sermon: The beginning of Jesus’ ministry: his proclamation of the coming kingdom and the calling of his first disciples.
Sermon By: Kimberley Axtell at The Episcopal Church in Almaden
Today's Gospel Reading: Mark 1:14-20
“After John was arrested, Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God, and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has come near; repent, and believe in the good news.”
As Jesus passed along the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the sea—for they were fishermen. And Jesus said to them, “Follow me and I will make you fish for people.”
And immediately they left their nets and followed him. As he went a little farther, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John, who were in their boat mending the nets. Immediately he called them; and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men, and followed him.”
