The vision of a disciple must be the vision of God. Disciples must see with wide angled lenses that enable them to recognise that God offers the grace of salvation to all. The passages from both Isaiah and Luke are astounding in their inclusivity. They show that God’s saving grace is unbounded. It reaches out to those whom the people of God may not only distrust but sometimes even despise. The psalm refrain is the command to go out to the whole world. The first reading describes God sending fugitives back home to get their relatives. People are gathered into the community of the saved primarily because others have been sent out to get them. Today that command is directed to us. We are the ones who are being sent out to bring others to God. All Christians are called to the task of spreading the good news of the gospel. This is not an option; it is a responsibility.
