Talking to people about Jesus is nerve-wracking. In this Epiphany series, we’re going to explore how Jesus met people where they were – and what was so good about the news he shared. Ultimately, we’ll see that sharing Jesus with people is easier than we ever imagined. All it takes is a lot of love.

Jesus' Dress Code
As followers of Jesus, we struggle to balance the radical hospitality of Jesus' new life with the call to be holy that invitation implies. Everyone is welcome, and everyone must become like Jesus. In Matthew 22, Jesus compares God's kingdom to a great wedding that has an open guest list - everyone is invited! But if you come to the party God's throwing, you must be willing to be transformed, to "wear the right outfit". Jesus' kingdom is both radically welcoming and radically challenging. And that's good, because we need both!
