This passage narrates the incident of Jesus calling His first disciples. For the discussion in the group, let’s have the following questions.


• Share a recent God Experience/blessing in your life
• What things does Jesus asks Peter to do and in what order? Why the progression, do you think?
• Whose boat did Jesus get into? Do you feel any spiritual meaning in His action?
• Share any of your experience of “worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything”.
• What happened when Peter obeyed Jesus? What this tells to us? (John 15: 4-7) (Philippians 4:13) (Romans 8:31) (Proverbs 16:3)
• How does Jesus respond to Peter’s plea for him to leave, due to Peter’s sinfulness?
• Does Jesus require ALL his disciples to leave everything? Why or why not?
• What does it mean to you personally to “follow” Jesus? Share a bit of your personal journeying with Jesus
