I read this text differently now, after the ARE retreat I attended last month. ARE stands for A Renewal Enterprise. The church needs to be renewed. At Stewardship last night, those words came out again, "We've never done it that way before!" The response, "That's not a good excuse."
The cool thing about Jesus is that while he challenges the new disciples to do something they've never done before...this kingdom work before them...he meets them where they are at. They are fishermen. Now they will fish for men.
Be who you are. See what you have. Do what matters.
