b'Today we answer an anonymous question from Tumblr about having to listen to their therapist go on about how being bi is wrong. The therapist is a Christian, but her opinion left our listener feeling depressed and scared about being outed by the therapist. \\u201cHow can I escape this without outing myself or giving the therapist a chance to out me?\\u201d\\nWe also queered the text from Mark 1:14-20 where it revealed to us the possible reason for Jesus\\u2019 path into public ministry. This reason illuminates how our movements today are sometimes moved into action. It also showed us what a true follower is and what it entails to truly believe in Jesus. It\\u2019s not simply saying a prayer, but to go out into the world and do the work.\\xa0\\nKey takeaways:\\n\\nFr.

Here comes God\\u2019s kingdom! Change your hearts and lives, and trust this good news!\\u201d As 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 Devin Avery\\n\\n \\nThe post The Catalyst – Mark 1:14-20 appeared first on Queer Theology.'
