Lamppost: Initiation

September 21, 2014 Speaker: Joel Sutton Series: Lamppost: Letting Christ Shine in Your Neighborhood

Scripture: Luke 5:1–5:11

Lamppost: Initiation

Luke 5:1-11

 

Jesus initiates a conversation with Simon Peter. Vv. 1-4

 

Jesus invests in a relationship with Simon Peter. Vv. 4-10a

 

Jesus invites Simon Peter to follow Him. Vv. 10b-11

 

Two Lessons

1) If we are going to invite people to Christ, then at some point, the conversation needs to turn to spiritual matters.


2) Before you initiate, pray.

 

 

Take Home Idea: Being a Lamppost can be as simple as a walk next door.
