When they saw him, Joi Tucker they WOr- St. an ’s shiped him; Lutheran Church ~~ but ~~ some doubted. And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make dis- ciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey every- thing that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you al- ways, to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:16-20 Grace to you and peace from God our Father, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. Amen. This past Sunday (May 31) was Holy Trinity Sunday — a time in the Christian church that we cele- brate the presence of God being re- vealed to us in three distinct ways: God the Father and Creator, God the Son in Jesus Christ, and God the Holy Spirit. It is on this Sun- day that the lectionary provides us this text from Matthew’s gospel known as the great commission. This is the last scene recorded in the gospel where the newly resur- rected Jesus comes to his disciples for one last set of instructions, one last portrayal of wisdom and will for his closest friends. The pairing of this scripture with the celebration of the church doctrine of the Trinity leads me to think about what it means to em- lo $ Faith | KINGS MOUNTAIN Long Creek Presbyterian Church . 701 Long Creek Road 704-629-4406 ~ Love Valley Baptist Church 2032 Bethlehem Road 704-730-0075 Macedonia Baptist Church 1101 S.

Piedmont Aven 704-739-7466 body the belief of the Trinity. What does being a Trinitarian Christian look like? We profess our faith in God, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit so how can we faith- fully live out our belief? I think Jesus’ commission in Matthew 28 gives us preciously a faithful path to live into the doc- trine of the Trinity. In his great commission, Jesus instructs his disciples and us today, to go out into all the world and make disci- ples, baptism them and teach them all that he himself has taught them. And so I believe that to be a Trin- itarian Christian, we have to begin to take seriously this commission; we have to prioritize our ministry so that making disciples is at the top of our purposes. And realize that this is hard work, people of God. It takes a lot of time and energy to set out to intentionally make disciples; to model and encourage the prac- tices of discipleship (daily prayer, weekly worship, regular Bible Study, a heart for service, the de- sire for spiritual friendships, and a giving spirit). And its difficulty is only magnified with all the cul- tural and institutional challenges that tempt our mission and min- istry. My prayer for us this day is that we can identify that one per- son in our lives that needs spiritual encouragement, prayer and guid- ance and that needs us to model for them what it means to be a Trinitarian Christian — that we can identify that person and begin an intentional relationship with them so that they can see God working through us in their lives. My prayer is that we can all live into our call- ing to re-present God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit in all that we say and do. Amen.
