THE DAY THEY LEFT THEIR NETS: Jesus, the Sea of Galilee, and a call that changed everything

Описание: In the Bible, Jesus first called His disciples—Peter, his brother Andrew, and the sons of Zebedee, James and John—while they were fishing by the Sea of Galilee, as detailed in the Gospels of Matthew and Mark. He invited them to follow him, promising to make them "fishers of men," a transformative journey that marked the beginning of their apprenticeship in discipleship. After three years of ministry and witnessing his resurrection, the disheartened disciples returned to their old lives as fishermen. One night, after a fruitless effort to catch fish, a man on the shore—whom they later recognised as the risen Jesus—told them to cast their nets on the other side. Following His instruction, they caught an overwhelming number of fish, a miraculous sign that reignited their faith and hope in God. This event not only underscored Jesus' divine authority but also illustrated the profound themes of redemption and calling in Christian theology, as seen in biblical texts like the Book of John.

✍️ ABOUT STEVE LEE
I've been a storyteller all my life with a deep love of history. As a dreamer in Sunday School, I was mesmerised by the stories of the Bible - David and Goliath, the Battle of Jericho and the parting of the Red Sea. But through my teenage years, I struggled to get the whole religious thing and left it well alone. It took me some time to realise I needed to go back and pick up what I left behind. At 20 I encountered the God of the Bible stories I had learned about as a kid and it changed my life forever. I founded Miracle Street as a result and it has taken me all over the world on countless adventures. Today I communicate in all kinds of environments - indoors, outdoors and online, often retelling the stories of famous lives and epic moments from the past. Behind it all is a backcloth of the greatest story ever told - the story of a creator God who has relentlessly loved this world and the people in it.
