Part 3-11 Simon Peter - Worthy Commitment
Mark 1:16-20
Joel Than
One of the first persons to commit his life to Jesus was Peter. His commitment
also cost him his life. But it was a worthy commitment: he lived a life worthy of
the commitment, and it was worth it. Let us learn from Peter to trust Jesus fully, and respond to God's call with similar faith and commitment.
About this series
Jesus had many disciples. Large crowds followed Him, and He also had committed groups of men and women, including women who supported His ministry (Luke 8:3) and the 72 whom He sent out in pairs (Luke 10:1). However, the most famous and intimate group of disciples was the Twelve, whom Jesus chose after a night of prayer (Luke 6:12-13). These Twelve travelled and ministered with Jesus, were eyewitnesses to His ministry, and were commissioned as apostles (Luke 6:13).
In this series, we will examine how Jesus discipled the Twelve and how they responded to Him.
Through their lives, let us open our hearts to respond to God's call upon our lives to be His disciples.
