This contemplative devotional episode of 2 Minute Disciple focuses on Mark 2:13–17 in the New Living Translation (NLT), where Jesus calls Levi the tax collector with the simple words, “Follow me and be my disciple.” Host Nick Oyler walks listeners through a rhythm of slowing down, reading, noticing, meditating, and responding.
We explore how Jesus meets us in our everyday lives—in the very places we might feel most compromised or ashamed—and invites us into a new identity as His disciples. The episode ends with a practical spiritual exercise about creating an “open table” for those who may feel far from God.
