One of the important things Jesus did while He was on earth was to choose followers to learn from Him and carry on His work and message after He was crucified, rose from the dead, and returned to heaven. There were twelve men who followed Jesus whom He chose to be His disciples.
There were lots of people who liked what Jesus taught, or liked the fish and bread that He provided, or liked the healing He brought. They even wanted to make Jesus their king! But he had called just twelve to spend time with Him and learn about Him. All of them were from Galilee, except Judas (from Judea). They were from all kinds of backgrounds, from fishermen to tax collectors. But they all were willing to follow Jesus when He called them.
Jesus still calls men and women, boys and girls, today…to follow Him, obey His commands, and to tell others about Him. He has a special assignment for each one of us. Some are to be teachers, some preachers, some mothers and fathers, but we can all learn from Jesus and encourage one another to follow Him more closely.
This Sunday, come learn with us how Jesus called people when He lived in Israel, and how He is calling you today. Bring a friend!
Tom and Sydney Cook
