Memory Verse : “Love each other in the same way I have loved you.” John 15:12, NLT
Jesus says, “Follow Me.”
Peter, Andrew, James, and John • Matthew 4:18-22
Jesus chooses the first four of His twelve close friends, or disciples. Jesus doesn’t go to the schools filled with teachers to find them, and He doesn’t go to where smart and good-looking people are to find them. Jesus goes to a fishing village and tells four fishermen named Peter, Andrew, James, and John: “Follow Me.” And they do! Why four fishermen? Because Jesus loves everyone.
