“Come and See”
Early in his ministry, Jesus, a rabbi from Nazareth, called Philip to become a disciple. Philip found Nathaniel, his friend, and invited him to meet Jesus. Nathaniel responded, “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?”
Philip said, “Come and see.” (John 1:43-46, NRSV)
Many may ask if anything good can come out of Nebraska. Our answer is the same: Come and see!
