Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor

Study: Matthew

Key Text: Matthew 4:18-25

Description:

Ordinary men.

Ordinary work.

Ordinary lives.

Sitting in their boat
with their father.

And then Jesus speaks:

Follow Me.

Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast,
Pastor Monty Simao continues our study in the Gospel of Matthew—

as the King who has come
now begins to call men to Himself.

First stop: the Sea of Galilee—

where fishermen, brothers, and sons
hear the sovereign call of Christ.

He calls them from their nets.
From their boats.
From life as they knew it.

And in His hands, ordinary men
become fishers of men.

But as crowds begin to gather around Jesus,

Matthew leaves us with a searching question:

Are we merely near Him…

or have we truly heard
the call of the King?
