With the New Year comes dreams, goals, and resolutions, but as we pursue these things, what are we looking for? Is it fulfillment, satisfaction, financial stability, status, or something else? The same question could be asked about church. When we come to worship God, what are we seeking? Are we coming to church because of the tradition we were taught, or because the Bible says we should, or because we're genuinely curious about Jesus and we want to know him?
In John 1:35–42, two men wrestle with this same question as Jesus asks them, "What are you seeking?" How will we respond to this question ourselves? The hope is that we will seek to know Jesus more by accepting his invitation to follow him and learn from him, and as we do, we will invite others to know and experience Jesus for themselves.
