SUNDAY SNAPSHOT... (GO FISH Series)


Our BIG IDEA this Series... How willing and ready are you to FOLLOW 'THE WAY' and GO FISH?

Has your BOBBER disappeared? (1 Peter 3:15) ALWAYS be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have!

Here’s what we discovered ‘in a nutshell’ last week… Mt 4:17-20 - Jesus’ little/BIG idea - "FOLLOW ME!" WHY?! So I can MAKE YOU (what you aren’t) - FISHERS OF MEN!

FOLLOWERS eventually FISH – if they’re really FOLLOWING!

The reality is this… It’s gonna take some GUTS to FISH!


Here’s what you need to know about your MESSAGE…

CHRISTIANITY is not INTUITIVE!

It’s not a THEOLOGY – a PHILOSOPHY – a MORALITY – a CODE OF ETHICS – or a SET OF VALUES!

-Christianity is something that is grounded & founded in HISTORY!

-Christianity is not about a BELIEF SYSTEM – it’s based around an EVENT!

The only way to know something about HISTORY is for someone to TELL YOU / SHARE WITH YOU / EXPLAIN TO YOU – EXACTLY - WHAT THAT HISTORICAL EVENT WAS! (It can’t be conjured up or made up!)

The TRUTH is – the very FIRST FOLLOWERS – the very FIRST “FISHERS FOR MEN”… Had NO GUTS either!

UNTIL… ACTS 4:23-29

We will see the “A-HA” Moment which beats ALL “A-HA” Moments in regards to FISHING & FISH GUTS that you’ll ever see!


Join us this week as we look closely at this “A-HA” MOMENT in HISTORY where the first FOLLOWERS of ‘THE Way’ realized that they were not just meant to be spectators of this PLAN – they were MAJOR PLAYERS in HIS PLAN!


See you on SUNDAY!
