    April 25, 2004 John 21:1-14 The Greek word for fish is ixthus. You often see that word on the back of cars within the shape of a fish. If you’ve ever wondered what that is supposed to symbolize - it’s not just for people who like fish. The five letters that spell fish - iota, chi, theta, ...read more

    This message helps us to restore God’s design and our shattered dreams by looking at the restoration story with Peter.

    God’s Design - Our Dreams John 21:1-25 I want to begin this message with a word from Scripture and a line from a song.

    God is still working not only for the glory of His name, but also for the benefit of His people!

    This sermon explores the need to follow God’s lead and not worry about what others think. I do this through the lense of Simon Peter. It also encoureges people to share their faith in a simple manner in their everyday life.

    Simon Peter poked the last bite of fish into his mouth; these were miracle fish, provided by the Master Himself. His mind seemed to whirling trying to process the events of the past couple of weeks. It started with the triumphal entry. Peter had thrilled that everyone seemed to be ready to finally ...read more
