The message focuses on Matthew 4:19, where Jesus calls His disciples to follow Him and become "fishers of men." Pastor Dale likens the church to a boat, emphasizing that working together enhances outreach to those in need of spiritual support. Through personal anecdotes about restoring an old rowboat, the Pastor illustrates the importance of unity and collaboration in the church.

 

The talk transitions to the concept of "bait" for fishing, suggesting that believers themselves are the best bait to attract others to Christ. Pastor highlights the need for authenticity, urging Christians to reflect God's love and light in their lives. Citing various biblical passages, they emphasize the necessity of having a good heart, obedience to God's word, and becoming a positive example for others. 

 

He warns against using the wrong "bait," such as judgmental attitudes or insincerity, stressing that people are drawn to genuine, victorious Christian lives. Ultimately, they call for self-examination, obedience, and a commitment to being instruments of God's love and light in the world.
