Why does Jesus start a world-changing movement by walking up to a few fishermen? In this sixth message in our “Follow Me” series through the book of Mark, Pastor Steve Van Denend walks through Mark 1:16-20 and what it really means when Jesus says, “Follow me.” You’ll see how Jesus steps into ordinary work, ordinary lives, and calls people like you to something deeper, not by hype, but by simple invitation and daily trust. If you’ve ever wondered what following Jesus looks like in your actual, everyday Midwest life—jobs, family, routine—this message will help you think honestly about where He might be asking you to drop your nets and take the next step.
