Following Jesus: The Calling of the Disciples

📖 Introduction

Welcome to this 21-day Bible study on the calling of the disciples, an inspiring journey into what it means to respond to Jesus' invitation. Throughout the Gospels, we encounter an extraordinary pattern: Jesus calling ordinary people—fishermen, tax collectors, and those considered common folk—to leave their old lives behind and become followers who would change the world. This remarkable calling is not just history; it’s a personal, timeless invitation for each of us.

Why does Jesus call such ordinary people? Because His mission is rooted in grace, transformation, and purpose. The disciples didn’t start perfect; they were flawed, doubting, and sometimes afraid. Yet, Jesus saw their potential and invited them anyway, asking them to trust Him and be part of something greater.

As we journey through these 21 days, we'll dive deep into the stories of the disciples' call, reflecting on what this means for our own lives today. Each day offers scripture, devotional thoughts, reflection questions, journaling prompts, and prayer to guide you in responding fully to Christ’s call.

Prepare your heart to be challenged and encouraged — to step beyond comfort into a new life of faith and action. Whether you’re new to following Jesus or have walked with Him for years, this study invites you to re-examine your own calling and experience how God’s transformative power still works through ordinary people to impact the world.

Get your Bible ready and let’s begin this adventure of discovery, obedience, and transformation together!
