Getting Ready to Fish!
The Men’s Bible Study group brought their Wednesday night studies to everyone during Sunday Morning Worship.
God continues to lay DISCIPLESHIP on our hearts, as He has given us this task in His Great Commission. So, to kick off the time of fellowship and learning, we reflected on characteristics of a fisherman (since seven of the 12 original disciples called by Jesus were fishermen)… As you read this list, try to relate these characteristics to a fisher of men.. not just a fisherman:
Skill and Expertise in Fishing Techniques
Mastery of Fishing Equipment
Knowledge of Fishing Spots
Understanding Weather Patterns
Adaptability in Fishing Methods
Hard Work and Perseverance
Long Hours of Labor
Endurance in Harsh Conditions
Persistence in the Face of Uncertainty
Collaboration and Teamwork
Partnerships in Fishing
Shared Responsibilities
Mutual Support and Encouragement

The group shared round-table discussion on the importance of being BOLD for Christ. We are excited to pick this message back up on Sunday, March 30th.
