Fishers of Men

Post written by

So here we are–there are less than two weeks until our first performance at Teen Challenge! It being one of our favorite places to present our show, those members who have been there before are pretty psyched to go back. New members are doing a great job of learning old choreography, and we hope they are all able to stand alongside us on stage at our first show! A cast of actors and actresses, solo singers, and featured dancers have been putting in extra rehearsal time to really emphasize our fresh, new material for our fans at Teen Challenge. The whole group is working hard to make a difference in the lives of the men and women who will be in our audiences this season.

Last night in my devotions, I was reading in the book of Matthew. In chapter 4, verse 19, Jesus says to Simon (called Peter) and his brother Andrew, two fishermen, “Come follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” I was thinking of how we can apply this to what we’re doing in Shining Light. God has called us out to be a light in one of the darkest places in the world–he has called us to witness, and to tell our stories, and to encourage. What we have found in Him is appealing to others, and through His power, we can bring others to Him. We are fishers of men.

Hope to see you all Sunday, October 18th at Teen Challenge Training Center in Rehrersburg. Thanks for reading =)

Have a blessed week!
