Mark 1

I have friends who LOVE to fish. They never get enough of the quest to land another one, whether they want to eat it or not. They have special poles and lures and reels and favorite spots to try to catch a bigger fish. It’s almost an obsession.

Jesus probably recruited fishermen because He knew they understood the principle … always thinking about another fish to catch. The Kingdom of God has and is being built on this multiplication technique … catching fish.

As born-again Christians, this needs to be our mentality. We should be much more aggressive about our strategies and energies aimed at catching fish. We are fishing for men to find their eternal place in God’s Great Big School of Fish.
