  2. What was Jesus’ message (17; 3:2)? What is the difference between John and Jesus speaking these words?

  3. Whom did Jesus call as his first disciples and how (18-19)? How is this related to the kingdom (17)? What command and promise1 did Jesus give them? What does this mean to us?

  4. How did Peter and Andrew respond (20)? How was James and John’s call similar yet different (21,22)? What do we learn here about Jesus’ calling and how to respond to it?

  5. What did Jesus do throughout Galilee (23)? What does this show about the kingdom? How did people respond to Jesus’ ministry (24-25)? Why do you think large crowds followed him? Why do you follow him?
