Following The Master Series

Yes, I Love You, More Than You Can Imagine

Contributed by Bob Amundsen on Apr 17, 2010

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

Jesus Is With Us, Providing For Our Needs

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Apr 18, 2010

After his resurrection and before his ascension Jesus left some vivid memories for his friends that would sustain them in the future. At the Lake Jesus shows them he is with them, and he will provide for their needs.
