The Gospel of John Lesson 8: Calling the First Disciples

The call of the first disciples is the same call that reaches us today: to come, to see, and to follow. In John 1:35–42, John the Baptist points his own followers toward Jesus, declaring, “Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.” With humility and obedience, he releases those closest to him so they can follow the One who truly saves. In this episode, we reflect on what it means to turn others—and even our own hearts—toward Jesus. As we respond to that call, may we be moved to lead others closer to Christ, the Lamb of God.
