Verses

{One day as Jesus was walking along the shore of the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers—Simon, also called Peter, and Andrew—throwing a net into the water, for they fished for a living. Jesus called out to them, “Come, follow me, and I will show you how to fish for people!” And they left their nets at once and followed him. Matthew 4:18-20 NLT}{“Let’s go across to the outpost of those pagans,” Jonathan said to his armor bearer. “Perhaps the Lord will help us, for nothing can hinder the Lord. He can win a battle whether he has many warriors or only a few!” 1 Samuel 14:6 NLT}

Quotes

John Eldredge : “Christianity, in its true form, tells us that there is an Author and that He is good and beautiful and true, for He is the source of all these things. It tells us that He has set our hearts’ longings within us. It warns us that the truth is always in danger of being twisted and corrupted and stolen from us because there is a Villain in the Story who hates our hearts and wants to destroy us. It calls us up into a Story that is truer and deeper than any other, and assures us that there we will find the meaning of our stories.” (EPIC); Erwin McManus : “When Jesus walked this earth, His disciples had to keep up with Him. If they were to stay close, they had to choose to leave the life they lived without Him and go wherever He would go.” (Seizing Your Divine Moments ); Darrow Miller : “There is something that we have been created to do that no one else has been made to do in the way that we do it.” (LifeWork, a Biblical Theology for What You Do Every Day ); Erwin McManus : “How we view God dramatically affects the person we become. How we understand God to work radically affects the life we live in God.” (Seizing Your Divine Moments ); Erwin McManus : “When you move with God, He always shows up. It’s difficult to predict what He will do or how He will do it. If you wait for guarantees, the only thing that will be guaranteed is that you will miss endless divine opportunities – that you can know for certain.” (Seizing Your Divine Moments);
