In My Little Town…
▾ In My Little Town…
Entice: I was in my home town this week!
I enjoyed time with one of my best friends from growing up-Bruce Brinkerhoff His grandmother had passed she was 107 and was truly a matriarch of our little neighborhood.
My friend Bruce's Dad, Frank, was my 7th grade teacher.
Bruce's brother Brad was a pretty good amateur Photographer.
I had completely forgotten when Beth got hit in the face with a shot put.
We shared many good stories and dropped a lot of names.
Bruce and I learned about horses together.
He has been in the Standardbred industry since he graduated college.
When he was choosing that for his career I was choosing ministry.
As I got ready to leave Frank hugged me and said "I'm just gonna call you Bobby."

Engage: Think about your life.
When you were learning to shoot a basketball, hit a baseball, or kick a football; were't the failures a significant part of your growth and maturation, didn't they help you master the skill?
The same thing is true as we grow older and master the skills and tools that define our professions.
The phrase, I believe is

Expand: When Jesus returned to His little home town of Nazareth-after all the miracles elsewhere, all the healings and hullabaloo, He failed.Gasp!
How could it be?
He was perfect?
He is incarnate God, everything He touched turned to gold!
Sorry.
That was Midas.
Everything Midas touched turned to gold-it was a myth and the result was a nightmare.

We would like to forget this passage-it's not the sort of thing that we preach often-because it does not jive with what we know about Jesus and how He is presented in the rest of Mark's Gospel.
But the fact is that all three synoptics tell this story.
Maybe that should give us pause when we would rather casually dismiss it.

Failure is not always about us, our efforts, or our commitment.

need to learn from our failures…get up when we are knocked down, and etc.
Failure is not always about us, our efforts, or our
commitment.
It certainly wasn't in this instance with respect to Jesus.
Excite: We can learn from our failures and the circumstances that create them.
Sometimes they are our fault-through ignorance, immaturity, impatience.
