Luke 5:1 - 16

Jesus teaches the crowd by utilizing a fisherman's boat as a speaking platform.  After teaching, He assists the fishermen in taking the largest catch they had experienced.  After blessing them so profusely, He extends an invitation to these men to abandon their nets and become fishers of men.  The fishermen do so, following Jesus as His disciples.

Jesus heals a leper; and when the news spreads, Jesus withdraws from the public view.  He did not want to develop a reputation as merely a miracle healer.
