This week we explored why reading the Bible matters and how it helps us grow as followers of Jesus. Looking at Jesus’ invitation to Peter and Andrew in Mark 1 — “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of people” — we were reminded that the Bible is more than information; it’s an invitation into apprenticeship with Jesus. As we read Scripture, we begin to see God’s character more clearly, hear His voice more rightly, and learn how to live His way faithfully. 

Following Jesus isn’t about having everything figured out — it’s about staying close to Him and letting His words shape our thinking, decisions, and lives. The more we engage with God’s Word, the more we grow in confidence, clarity, and purpose.
