John 1:45-51
INTRO: I want you to take God's Word now this morning and be finding your place at John chapter 1 if you would. We are picking up this morning in a series of character studies that we began back in February on the 12 men that Jesus called and commissioned to come after Him and become His disciples. And of course, we're talking about the 12 disciples or the 12 apostles, and this morning we come to the sixth man that is found in the listing of the 12 -- a man by the name of Nathanael.

ILLUS: One of the most famous sports bloopers ever took place in the 1930 Rose Bowl. You've probably seen a clip of it at one time or the other. Roy Reigle recovered a fumble. He was playing for the University of Southern California. This was his big moment. There was the ball. He picked it up and made a dazzling and an amazing run and scored a tou ...
