Who Has Your Attention?
Dear Friends,

We live surrounded by voices competing for our attention.

Some are loud. Some are persistent. Some carry impressive credentials or occupy positions of influence. Some make us anxious. Some make us angry. Some promise that if we will only listen to them, they can tell us what is wrong with the world and what we ought to do about it.

With so many voices competing for our attention, it is worth asking: Which voices actually have authority in our lives?

There is a difference between power and authority. Power can make us do something. Authority is something we trust enough to let it shape us—even change us.

This Sunday we will hear a story from Matthew's Gospel in which the religious leaders ask Jesus a pointed question: “By what authority are you doing these things, and who gave you this authority?”

It's a reasonable question. These leaders know where authority is supposed to reside. They know who holds office, who has been trained, who has permission to teach in the temple.

But Jesus turns their question around. He asks them about John the Baptist—a man with no temple office or institutional standing, but whose words had caused people to change their lives.

And then Jesus tells a wonderfully simple story about two sons. One says “yes” but doesn't go. The other says “no,” but later changes his mind and goes to work in the vineyard.

Somewhere between the “no” and the vineyard, something happens.

Maybe that is where many of us live much of the time.

Faith isn't always a cheerful and immediate “Yes, Lord.” Sometimes faith begins with reluctance, resistance, uncertainty, even “no.” Yet God does not abandon us there.

Paul reminds the Philippians that “God is at work in you.”

God is at work in us—in our questions and resistance, in our uncertainty and willingness, perhaps even in that mysterious space between our no and our yes.

So perhaps the question for us is not simply, Where does authority reside?

Perhaps the more personal question is: Who has your attention?

What shapes your decisions? Whose voice do you trust? What are you willing to let change you?

Come and join us for worship this Sunday as we listen together for the One who is still at work in us.

Grace and peace,

Roger

We were blessed to have Anna Munthe and Jordan Watung preside over our service today. Their messages were spot on. Dantje contributed beautiful music and Fabiola Pangkerego did a fantastic job as leader, liturgist, and relating the message to the youth. If you haven’t watched the service I highly recommend 🙏🏼❤️
