The Harvest Mtt 9:35-38

We pick up our studies of the Gospel of Saint Matthew this Sunday by beginning a new series (Harvest) on the why and how of sharing your faith in Jesus with others. For many followers the idea of sharing your faith with friends and family is a solid mix of genuinely wanting to, feeling afraid to, feeling guilty for not, and feeling embarrassed by how others have done it. This section of Jesus' teaching provides us with the right message and the right motivations to help us feel more confidently ourselves while living openly about what we have found in the Way of Jesus.
