Mark 1:14-20

14Later on, after John was arrested, Jesus went into Galilee, where he preached God’s Good News.

15“The time promised by God has come at last!” he announced. “The Kingdom of God is near! Repent of your sins and believe the Good News!”

16One day as Jesus was walking along the shore of the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew throwing a net into the water, for they fished for a living.

17Jesus called out to them, “Come, follow me, and I will show you how to fish for people!”

18And they left their nets at once and followed him.

19A little farther up the shore Jesus saw Zebedee’s sons, James and John, in a boat repairing their nets.

20He called them at once, and they also followed him, leaving their father, Zebedee, in the boat with the hired men.
