b'The Gospel of Mark \\u2014 the earliest written of the gospels \\u2014 jumps right into the action with the arrest of John the Baptist and the start of Jesus\\u2019s public ministry. He calls his first disciples and asks them to change their heart, change their life, and trust the good news. What did that mean for them and what does it mean for us?\\nRead the transcript (PDF)\\nIn this episode, we reference Jesus describing his \\u201cgood news\\u201d in Luke 4. Here\\u2019s some more on that.\\nMark 1:14-20\\nAfter John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee announcing God\\u2019s good news, saying, \\u201cNow is the time! Here comes God\\u2019s kingdom! Change your hearts and lives, and trust this good news!\\u201d\\nAs Jesus passed alongside the Galilee Sea, he saw two brothers, Simon and Andrew, throwing fishing nets into the sea, for they were fishermen. \\u201cCome, follow me,\\u201d he said, \\u201cand I\\u2019ll show you how to fish for people.\\u201d Right away, they left their nets and followed him. After going a little farther, he saw James and John, Zebedee\\u2019s sons, in their boat repairing the fishing nets. At that very moment he called them. They followed him, leaving their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired workers.\\nPhoto by paladinsf\\nThe post Change your heart & your life \\u2013 Mark 1:14-20 appeared first on Queer Theology.'
