FGG-066 Fishermen and Fishers of Men

One of my passions is bass fishing. I’ll drop almost anything for an opportunity to spend some time on a lake or pond fishing. I find that fishing not only relaxes me but teaches me patience, as well. Sometimes, when I am fishing alone, I think of the apostles, and why Jesus chose so many fishermen to evangelize, and why he has chosen me to do the same? In this podcast, Tony discusses fishermen and Fishers of Men.

Scripture: As he was walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter, and his brother Andrew, casting a net into the sea; they were fishermen. He said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.” At once they left their nets and followed him. He walked along from there and saw two other brothers, James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John. They were in a boat, with their father Zebedee, mending their nets. He called them, and immediately they left their boat and their father and followed him. Matthew 4:18-22

Reflection: Do you see the similarities between fishing for fish and fishing for people? Is being sensitive to the person you are evangelizing important? What do you look for when you are sharing Jesus with someone new?
