    Jesus chose "ordinary, unschooled" men to be His disciples. For 3 years He equipped them for a ministry that turned the world upside down. But how did Jesus change them so they were ready for that adventure. And how can He do the same for us?

    Today’s sermon is about Jesus calling four fishermen to follow him. We can find this story also in Mark 1:16-20.

    Jesus advised Peter and Andrew to leave their fishing business and become “fishers of men.” That means they were to help other people to find God. Jesus was calling them from their useful business to be spiritually useful. How many of us have heard the call and answered? We as a whole need to be ...read more

    Jesus called a bunch of smelly fishermen to share in His ministry. So, when Jesus extends a call, what does it look like? What does it entail? What might He ask us to do? Or, what might we have to let go of in order to serve Him?

    I have entitled our message this morning, “For the Sake of the Call,” and we are going to look at how Jesus called a bunch of smelly fishermen to share in His ministry. Allow me to get started with a joke: “Why did Jesus call so many fishermen to become apostles? He was always looking for a ‘net ...read more

    Jesus has given the Great Commission to His followers. Sometimes disciples are too intimidated or confused about how to fulfill that commission. This sermon offers a simple model for outreach as God's eyewitnesses.

    Introduction: A. Before I begin a new sermon series next week, God put it on my heart to focus this week’s sermon on the place of evangelism in the life of a disciple of Jesus. 1. Two weeks ago, we completed our sermon series on the final days of Jesus’ earthly life by looking at one of Jesus’ ...read more

    This sermon was a four-part podcast at GodNAmerica.com which asked: Are we fully committed to Jesus or just dabbling in Christianity?

    Intro – Part 1 1. Jesus came into the world to “seek and save the lost” (Luke 19:10). In doing so, he changed people from being the disciples of Satan to become His disciples. Jesus did what Rabbis do, they make disciples. 2. To be a disciple, one must follow the precepts and instructions of the ...read more

Jesus was calling them from their earthly trade to a spiritual trade. How many of us have heard the call and answered? If we all were to do what Christ taught and spread ...read more

    Repent sounds weird in today's language. What's it all about?

    Jesus’ first messages were summarized by two words, repent and believe in the Gospel (Matthew 4:17; Mark 1:15). What does repent mean? Turn Back Often translated as repent is the Hebrew word “shoob,” which means to turn back or return. What did Solomon, that wise backslider, say about national ...read more
