We have been on a journey of Faith Steps:
Week 1 and 2 Gideon
Week 3 Abraham and Sara - Kaleb Kinney
Week 4 Israelites - launched Faith Steps
Week 5 Marcus Hayes - Jesus Calling his Disciples Push out in the boat

Maybe a Night so..
not everyone saw him.
Maybe at night b/c he did not want to be bothered by the crowds
Maybe so the other Pharisees would not see him. They would have put pressure on him and called for his status to be taken away.
We really do not know
Either way He came to Jesus
Which for a religious leader like himself would have had to take great courage!!
Great Risk
