Jesus Calls Levi and Eats With Sinners

27 After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector by the name of Levi sitting at his tax booth. “Follow me,” Jesus said to him,
28 and Levi got up, left everything and followed him.
29 Then Levi held a great banquet for Jesus at his house, and a large crowd of tax collectors and others were eating with them.
30 But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law who belonged to their sect complained to his disciples, “Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?”
31 Jesus answered them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.
32 I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.”

Reputations and Vital Responsibilities, Part 2
Pastor Mike Fabarez

It precedes our words and actions when interacting with others.  It can be the deciding factor of whether we get that job or not.  It’s often the reason we’re part of certain crowds or social groups.  It’s our reputation, and we protectively guard it against anyone who would drag it through the mud.  On this edition of Focal Point, Mike Fabarez says that as followers of Jesus, our reputation may come under attack.  How do we respond?
