Kris Pace : Teaching Pastor
One day as Jesus was preaching on the shore of the Sea of Galilee, great crowds pressed in on him to listen to the word of God.
Luke 5:1
He noticed two empty boats at the water’s edge, for the fishermen had left them and were washing their nets.
Luke 5:2
Stepping into one of the boats, Jesus asked Simon, its owner, to push it out into the water. So he sat in the boat and taught the crowds from there.
Luke 5:3
"Invest and invite" is a great tool, it just can't be our only tool!
Peter had no idea how one invitation was going to change his life.
When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Now go out where it is deeper, and let down your nets to catch some fish.”
Luke 5:4
“Master,” Simon replied, “we worked hard all last night and didn’t catch a thing.
But if your say so...
I'll let the nets down again."
Luke 5:5

Luke 5:6
A shout for help brought their partners in the other boat, and soon both boats were filled with fish and on the verge of sinking.
Luke 5:7
Jesus replied to Simon, “Don’t be afraid!”

Luke 5:10

Luke 5:11
