Message: Matthew 4:12-17 “Lessons from the Land:Capernaum” After being nearly thrown from a high cliff in Nazareth, Jesus moved his ministry base to Capernaum and made it his home of operation. Capernaum sat upon a major trading route along the Sea of Galilee. This enabled Jesus to reach many people from all over the surrounding world. In this message, we’ll look at our mission to learn as Jesus’ disciples and to enter the world around us with the Gospel message of hope.
