Theme: Christian Discipleship
A disciple’s response is a journey toward the ideal of the good steward found in the Gospels.
Disciples retreat from selfishness promoted by our modern society of individualism and materialism. Discipleship demands effort,
sacrifice, education, and patience. However, the rewards for those who accept the challenge are inevitable and immeasurable.
God will not be outdone in generosity.
Scripture
Readings: John 14: 1-2, John 15: 9-17,
