John 12.20-33Some Greeks who had travelled to Jerusalem speak to Philip, who speaks to Andrew and they both go and tell Jesus. Philip and Andrew have learned that no one is too much trouble for Jesus and are confident in bringing people to him, even people who might normally be seen as outsiders. Jesus speaks about his death and resurrection and finishes with an assurance that he will draw everyone to himself.
What do we need to give up so that others may feel welcome? Is welcome a matter of drawing them to us, or of us going to them?
This week we explore what we need to let go,
in order to welcome others.
