2nd Sunday after Pentecost

In today’s reading of the Gospel, Matthew 4:18-23, is a passage from the New Testament that describes the calling of the first disciples by Jesus. In this passage, Jesus is walking along the Sea of Galilee when he sees two brothers, Simon Peter and Andrew, who were fishermen. Jesus calls out to them, saying "Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men." The two brothers immediately leave their nets and follow Jesus.

Further along the shore, Jesus sees two more brothers, James and John, who were also fishermen. He calls out to them as well, and they too leave their nets and follow him.

This passage is significant because it marks the beginning of Jesus' ministry and the calling of his first disciples. It also demonstrates the power of Jesus' message and his ability to inspire others to follow him. The phrase "fishers of men" has become a common metaphor for evangelism and spreading the word of God.

There are many ways that you can help evangelize and become a "fisher of men." One way is to simply share your own personal testimony of how you came to know Christ and the difference that he has made in your life. Another way is to invite friends, family, and acquaintances to church or Bible study groups. Ultimately, being a "fisher of men" means being intentional about sharing the message of salvation with others.
