    For Peter to lead the early church his overwhelming drive must exemplify supreme love for his Lord.

    Walking In the Love of God Text: John 21:15-17 15 So when they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me more than these?” He said to Him, “Yes, Lord; You know that I love You.” He said to him, “Feed My lambs.” 16 He said to him again a second time, ...read more

    When we sin, is our service to Christ finished? He is not only able to restore broken saints, but to use them mightily in His service.

    “When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, ‘Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?’ He said to him, ‘Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.’ He said to him, ‘Feed my lambs.’ He said to him a second time, ‘Simon, son of John, do you love me?’ He said to him, ‘Yes, ...read more

    God models the grace we are to give to one another in his restoration of Peter.

    Scripture Introduction The church has men in her pulpits who like to hear themselves talk and members who do good works to be applauded. People give money to purchase God’s favor and friendship. Some make a show of religion because they hope friends will notice. Some announce their beliefs quite ...read more

    How many of you are married? I and my wife are married for 19 years now.

    John 21 describes the dynamics of discipleship

    I am not a good letter writer. It seems as if I always leave something out. When I do write letters, I often have to add a P.S. This final chapter of John's gospel seems to a postscript. The closing verses of John 20 seem to conclude the book. Then, as an apparent postscript, chapter 21 is ...read more

    The Reinstatement & Restoration Of Peter

    We look at the reinstatement of Peter, using the passage in John 21 as our reference.

    After Jesus finished dealing with the physical needs of the Disciples, He then turned to dealing with their spiritual needs. In these verses, we see that Jesus is examining Peter, internally. Peter had repented and been restored to fellowship with the Lord since he had publicly denied Him. ...read more

    Emergency planning means getting ready for when things go wrong. This sermon considers how well we are prepared for things to go wrong in our Christian lives and how God can lift us back up when we fall.

    Many years ago when I was rather younger and fitter than I am now I was a member of a local Rescue Team. Our remit was partly Mountain Rescue but since the mountains in our area were rather made up of hills and moors this was not the dramatic role you might expect.

    Jesus wanted Peter to realize the ability to do what He was asking was already there, it already had arrived. Everything the disciples needed to complete the task before them, had already been bought, paid for and provided for, at the cross.

    “Love Jesus?” Feed His Sheep! John 21:15-17 NKJ. 15. So when they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me more than these?” He said to Him, “Yes, Lord; You know that I love You.” He said to him, “Feed My lambs.” 16.

    There is a bit of Peter in all of us. We are weak in the face of temptation. We feel like failures. Some people even keep a spiritual scorecard reminding them that they struck out. Jesus is willing to forgive our failures and call us into His service. A

    Simon Peter felt like a failure. On the last night of Jesus’ life on earth, Peter made an impossible commitment: “I will never run away and leave you.” But only hours later, Peter shouted, “I told you, I don’t even know him. Leave me alone!” Now, Christ h

    Guilt murders peace...How Peter's relationship to Jesus is our answer for true peace

    1After these things Jesus showed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias; and he showed himself in this way. 2Gathered there together were Simon Peter, Thomas called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples. 3Simon Peter said to ...read more

    Jesus asks Peter if he loves him and if he is truly ready to become a disciple. It is a question that Jesus asks of us today. If we know he loves us, how come we don't always do what he wants us to do which is to spread his message to others.

    Our reading this morning comes from the book of John Chapter 21: verses 1-19. It is a story that we might be familiar with, but if not it is an easy story to follow. It was written by the Apostle John, who by now if many of you don’t know is my favorite Gospel writer. John to me is the ...read more
