Who did Andrew bring to Jesus?  \nAre you sharing Jesus with your family and friends?  \nWhen Nathaniel heard about Jesus, he spoke negatively about Jesus' hometown. Do you have negative feelings toward certain people or places?  \n4. When Nathaniel met Jesus, what did he say?  \nThe chapter ends with Jesus referring back to Jacob's vision of a ladder to heaven. He seems to be telling Nathaniel that He (The Living Word) is now the link between heaven and earth.  \nRead or listen to John 2:1-11  \nDo you enjoy weddings? They are usually very happy occasions.
