- In these scripture passages, Jesus speaks of two needs. He speaks of his disciples needing rest, Sabbath. And Jesus knows that the people need a shepherd. We still need both of these things, but we often try to do without much in the way of rest or Sabbath. And we are even more resistant to having a shepherd. We hate to admit that we need guidance and direction, that we can't make it on our own.
I am an ELCA Lutheran from South Carolina. Today (July 18, Pentecost 8), this was our Gospel of the Day.
Tk you Pastor. Love the simplicity of the sermon yet so rich and impactful. Loved it even in 2024. Just shows the enduring power nature of God's word.
Pastor Sledge, thank you for this wonderful sermon. I thoroughly enjoyed it and feel prepared for Church tomorrow as Mark 6: 30-34, 53-56 are the readings. Blessings, I hope to attend your Church in person one day.
