Fishing is the calling of Jesus' church. In this episode we look at how the strategy of fishing informs the strategy of the church and the un-boring life Jesus wants for us.

Ever wonder why Jesus didn't call His first disciples to be 'warriors of men,' or 'students of men' instead of 'fishers of men'? Because fishing skills and knowledge are incredibly transferrable to framing the life Jesus has invited us into.

We're all messy. None of us has it all together. We're all in need of help cleaning up our mess. And only Jesus has the stronger stuff. There is nothing and no one better than Jesus.

In Hosea 5 we learn a few more things about sin and we get to see two powerful pictures of how God comes to us in our sin. Especially on Palm Sunday 2026, we remember how the Lion of the Tribe of Judah entered His hunting ground to secure His ultimate victory and defeat His desired prey.

In the face of Israel's sin, God first looks at the priests and holds them accountable for what they've done giving us a powerful, sobering picture of how important leadership is in His church.

In Week 3 of our series in Hosea, we dive into the imagery and message of the marriage metaphor between Hosea and Gomer. The pursuing love of God is on full display when we consider this powerful story. Time to hang up the running shoes!
