An inaugural address is meant to unify and provide a vision going forward. Jesus had His own inaugural address in Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God and a time of fulfillment (Mark 1:14-20). He recruited Simon and Andrew, James and John. Unlike a typical inaugural address, though, His is not limited in time and place. It’s meant to apply to each of us, today and every day. We’re meant to see ourselves in the first disciples. The address is meant to be used by us all, to call others to the Kingdom. Just like an inaugural address is a key feature of politics, make Jesus’s address a key feature of your discipleship.
