A group of persons working together. And whether you call it a group, a team, a conglomeration, an outfit, a collection, or a gang, it all speaks to several different things or people working together to accomplish a common task or goal. If anyone was capable of doing everything all by himself it was the God the Son, and yet he chose not to. He chose instead to enlist others to join him.
At some point not long after beginning his public ministry Jesus decided to recruit some people to work with him. He had gained some notoriety by this time and often encountered crowds of people. It was at one such time that he enlisted the aid of some local fisherman. He then used this situation to change their lives forever.
Big Idea: Jesus is still calling people go fishing with him! Luke 5:1-11
