Friends, in today’s Gospel*, Jesus identifies his disciples as his family*.
*I want to say something about our becoming disciples in his family*.* Once
we make the decision to follow Jesus, then every other claimant to
supremacy must fall away.*
As I’ve argued many times before, *every one of us has something or some
set of values that we consider greatest*. *Perhaps it is money, material
things, power, or the esteem of others. Perhaps it is your family, your
kids, your wife, your husband.*
*None of this is false, and none of these things are bad*. *But when you
place any of them in the absolute center of gravity, things go awry. When
you make any of them your ultimate or final good, your spiritual life goes
haywire. When you attach yourself to any of them with an absolute tenacity,
you will fall apart.*
*Only when we make Christ the cornerstone of our lives are we truly ready
for mission*. Keep in mind that *every encounter with God in the Bible
conduces to mission, to being sent to do the work of the Lord*.* If we try
to do this work while we are stuck to any number of attachments, we will
fail.Period. *
