Who was Andrew the Apostle? In John 1:35-42 (KJV) Jesus asks him "What seek ye?", and G. Campbell Morgan shows why Andrew mattered more than most Christians realize. G. Campbell Morgan Sermon Breakdown (The Great Physician), hosted by Matt Hepner with Raven.
Matt and Raven read G. Campbell Morgan's chapter on Andrew from The Great Physician. Morgan walks through the places Andrew is named: John 1:35-42, the call from the nets (Mark 1:16-18), the loaves and fishes (John 6:8-9), the Greeks who would see Jesus (John 12:20-22), the Mount of Olives (Mark 13:3-4), the upper room (Acts 1:13), and the foundations of the holy city (Revelation 21:14).
Andrew was a disciple of John the Baptist, a friend of John the Apostle, Simon's brother, and a strong, quiet man with the courage to leave John and follow Jesus. Jesus' first words to him were "What seek ye?" (John 1:38). Morgan says He was not asking who Andrew was looking for, but why. Andrew came and saw, abode with Him that day, and then "first findeth his own brother Simon" with the words "We have found the Messias" (John 1:41). Morgan closes on this: Christ's first disciple was not Peter but Andrew, and the city of God will be built not by the notoriety of its builders but by their fidelity.

Morgan says the Lord's first need is still "the strong, quiet soul who is content to remain largely out of sight." Who was the Andrew who brought you to Jesus? Tell us in the comments.
