* Your business functions better with Jesus as a part!

* 5:3 - let Jesus into your boat - use your biz as His platform.

* 5:4 - your workday should involve listening to Jesus first.

* Teaching takes place in the shallow, testing in the deep (the workplace).

* 5:6 - “After they had done this” - obedience precedes the blessing.

* 5:8 - You know your motivation for doing something by how you respond when it comes to pass (or when it doesn’t).

* 5:9 - People were awestruck at Pete’s biz success.

* They realized Jesus was in his boat and they praised God for it, not Pete!

* 5:11 - They left everything to follow Jesus - they didn’t ask Him to be their biz partner.

* But they first landed the boat! They made sure their biz was handled before they took off.

* Men need to make sure they handle their business (family, friends, personal issues, etc) before they go off and do great things for God. (Testimony of Curtis)
