GQM One Focus Theme: EVANGELISM

"[Jesus] said to them, 'Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.'" —Matthew 4:19 (ESV)

In biblical times, it was common for a rabbi, or teacher, to gather students who would follow him in his daily life. They would be mentored by him, learning both through his words and through observing his daily interactions and choices.

Jesus' call to younger men to follow Him in this way was not a foreign concept. Many rabbis and teachers had disciples. Andrew and Peter would have understood the role Jesus was calling them to fill.

The idea of fishing for men may have been strange, however. Peter and Andrew were expert fishermen. In one sentence, Jesus was already helping them understand the mission He would give to them.
