What does it mean to be a fisher of men?

Answered in 1 source

Being a fisher of men means actively sharing the Gospel and leading others to Christ.

The concept of being a fisher of men is rooted in the calling of the apostles, notably Peter, who was told by Jesus that he would catch people for the kingdom of God. This metaphor encapsulates the Christian mission to evangelize and disciple, seeking lost souls just as fishermen seek fish. The sermon stresses that Christians are called to trust in the Lord's guidance and provision in this mission, relying on His strength rather than their own capabilities. Following Christ involves participating in the Great Commission, making disciples and sharing the transformative love of Jesus with others.
