Every invitation calls for a response—including Jesus’ call in Matthew 11:28: “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Alistair Begg walks us through Christ’s gracious invitation, demonstrating how it is a timeless, personal, and universal call to all who are weary, burdened, lost, or sad. It is an offer not for the self-sufficient but for the broken and empty-handed. Yet while respite is promised, it’s not automatic; we first must respond to His invitation to “come.”
