Read the Story

After Jesus was baptized, the devil tried to make Him do wrong. Every time, Jesus said no. He answered with words from the Bible.

Then Jesus walked by the Sea of Galilee. He saw two brothers, Peter and Andrew. They were fishing with a net.

Jesus said, "Come after me, and I will make you fishers for men." Right away they left their nets and followed Jesus. Then Jesus called James and John too.
