“Jesus Choos­es Four Fishermen”

As Jesus was walk­ing along the shore of Lake Galilee, he saw Simon and his broth­er Andrew.  They were fish­er­men and were cast­ing their nets into the lake.  Jesus said to them, “Come with me!  I will teach you how to bring in peo­ple instead of fish.”  Right then the two broth­ers dropped their nets and went with him.

Jesus walked on and soon saw James and John, the sons of Zebedee.  They were in a boat, mend­ing their nets.  At once Jesus asked them to come with him.  They left their father in the boat with the hired work­ers and went with him.
