Although Christians are often identified by what they believe, Jesus seemed to care more about what his followers did. Faith practices, along with theological beliefs, are crucial to Christianity. These twelve weeks of Ordinary Time offer an excellent opportunity to explore what disciples do: practice generosity, wrestle with God, and take their faith public, to name a few. Although twelve weeks is a length sermon series, this series tackles a wide variety of engaging topics and will not feel repetitive or too long. Instead, church members will be challenged to live out the exciting call of Jesus, “Follow me.”
