Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, said to Peter and Andrew, “...Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” (Matthew 4:19).

He did not say, “I will try to make you fishers of men”, He said, “I will make you fishers of men.” Our job is to follow His leading, and He will make us into fishers of men.

God Has A Way About Him Series

Contributed by Sean Dees on Aug 15, 2022

Christians seem to really like to explain God. We seem to have an answer for everything, no matter what the question is; sometimes those explanations come from scripture, sometimes they come from theologians and theories, but we seem to have the answer. Do we always have to have the answer?
