What if the Great Commission isn’t just “go make disciples” but also “go make room”? Rev. Whitney connects Jesus’ training of the disciples to the way we’re formed and then sent, and she reframes disciple-making as something rooted in belonging. Jesus didn’t wait for people to have perfect theology before welcoming them. He saw them, called them close, and made space for them to belong, and belief often grew from there. This sermon lifts up the “belonging before believing” rhythm as deeply biblical and surprisingly aligned with Mosaic’s values: inspiring inclusion, cultivating authentic community, and joyfully serving with our neighbors. The invitation is simple and challenging: be the kind of disciples who help people know they belong to God and in the community of faith, so that when belief comes, they’re already home.
