The Joy of Fishing with Jesus

 Luke 5:1-11

Take-Home Truth: Jesus Christ is always looking for new disciples

Christ-Connection: Jesus calls us to do works that we can’t do, but he can.

Hook: (Ice-breaker question. Get the group talking!)

 

  1. Tell about a time you blindly followed someone. What was the outcome?

Engage: (Observe the passage and engage with the text)

 

  1. Read Luke 5:1-11 What particular verses or ideas stood out to you this week?

Reflect: (Reflect upon the key take-aways from the sermon)

  1. Richard said “we get into the habit of not including Jesus in every area of our lives.” How do life circumstances distract us from including Jesus? What are some ways you are faithful in this area?
  1. Read the sermon quote. “This is the beauty of the gospel. When you fail Jesus most miserably, this is when Jesus is most accessible. The moment you think he should walk away from you, that is when he gently extends his hand toward you.”

Do you identify with Peter’s instinct to push Jesus away in your failure? How does Jesus’ response encourage you?

Respond: (Apply the truths of God’s Word to your heart, affections, and actions)

 

  1. Commitment is never real until it leads to mission. Read Luke 5:10 and Jude 23. What is the mission to which we are called? How does this mission reveal your commitment?
  1. In practical terms, what are some things you are reluctant to give up in pursuit of Jesus and the mission you have been called to?
