Series: Forward to New Normal

First Thing First | 9 am

January 15, 2023 | Rev. Ramiro Rodriguez

Passage: John 1:35-46

When Jesus calls the first disciples, he completely disrupts their lives, their routines, and their plans for the future. Instead of being frustrated and negative about these disruptions, the disciples seem to be open to Jesus’ invitation into newness. How might we be more like the early disciples and open ourselves up to God’s new callings?

Series Information

God is always calling us forward, always making things new. Returning to the past or what used to work or be comfortable in life is not the ideal goal for a disciple of Jesus Christ. Coming out of the past few years, we all want to find a sense of normal, but that must be a new normal that God is still creating. How can we best love God and love people at First UMC Arlington as we move forward in 2023 to a new normal?
