Jesus “set his face to go to Jerusalem.” To the cross and resurrection. Then – and now – Jesus calls disciples, saying, “follow me!” In the Gospel reading from Luke 9:51-62, the earliest disciples exhibit three different kinds of responses to Jesus’ call: Some want to do away with those who don’t welcome them and Jesus! Some are “eager beavers,” but don’t recognize what discipleship means. And some make excuses. But then – and now – there is only one way to follow Jesus, and that is to follow him where he’s going.
