Thought question:  Jesus chose His 12 disciples.  Some were fishermen, one a tax collector, one will betray Jesus, one wanted to rebel against the Roman government.  They were not smart educated leaders.  Would you choose those kinds of people?  Why do you think Jesus chose them?

Jesus chose normal everyday people.  God often prefers to choose people who are not important leaders.  Then God can show His power to work in people.  God can work through regular people and do great things.
