DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
Guide your kids to open their Bibles to Matthew 4. Read Matthew 4:19-20 out loud. Explain that Jesus told the men He called that He would teach them to fish for people. But they wouldn’t use nets or boats; they would use their words to gather people and tell them about Jesus.
Discuss the following questions:
SAY
- Why do you think Jesus picked fishermen and tax collectors to be His disciples instead of kings or religious leaders?
The Bible says God uses people who have nothing to offer to show His power and strength through them.
- What does it mean to follow Jesus?
Discuss that following Jesus means trusting Him, obeying Him, and telling others about Him.
- What do you think might keep someone from following Jesus?
Share that everyone follows something, and we follow what we value the most. The Bible says we must follow Jesus and nothing else. We can pray that God will soften the hearts of those who do not follow Jesus so that they would come to know and love Him.
Read John 3:35-36 aloud. Explain that we follow Jesus and no one else because Jesus is the One who brings salvation. When we trust in Him, we are saved from sin and death.
- How can we point others to Jesus?
Discuss how we can tell people directly about Jesus, and we can also show kindness and have peace in a way that shows we trust Jesus with our live and our future.
