    A look at Peter’s walk on the water

    The entire world just disappeared. One minute it was there and the next minute, there it was gone. Well not really but it seemed like everything else had ceased to exist, and all there was left was Peter, the sea and Christ. It had started off as another boat trip across the Sea of Galilee for ...read more

    Fifth Sunday in Course 10 February 2013 “I am a sinful man” The liturgical calendar used with the Extraordinary form of the Mass calls this Sunday “Quinquagesima.” The meaning from the Latin is “the fifty days.” It’s about fifty days until Easter. Today ...read more

    Follow Me To A Great Catch

    God shook up Peter because he wanted to shake up the world. He can also shake all of us up so he can shake up the world-and boy does it ever need to be shaken up. When we obey God, we will become fishers of men.

    The story of Jesus teaching from the boat in Luke 5:1-11 occurs early in his earthly ministry. He preached to the crowd, and then he asked Peter to do something that did not make sense to Peter. He asked Peter to go fishing in the daytime. As someone who had fished in this particular area for most ...read more

    Jesus charges Peter as they chat around the campfire

    One of my favorite characters in the Bible is Peter. I guess it’s because I can relate to him so much. He tries to do the right things and say the right words but often stumbles along the way. He was just a simple fisherman that was handed the most important assignment any man could have. ...read more

    Why did Jesus permit Peter to be sifted like wheat? How do we respond to our own seasons of sifting?

    Good morning! Please open your Bibles to Luke 22. If you are a football fan, you may already know the answer to this question: which running back holds the record for career rushing yards? Correct. Emmitt Smith. Over the course of fifteen seasons, most of them with the Dallas Cowboys, Emmitt ...read more

    Paul warmly greets the church he would one day see face to face, but as a prisoner.

    1:1. “Paul.” We first meet him on the Damascus Road. But his life is told in other parts of the book of Acts, and the epistles. Circumcised the 8th day. Sent to Jerusalem to study eventually under Gamaliel, the grandson of Hillel, the most famous rabbi of Jewish history, except for Jesus ...read more

    Nineteenth Sunday In Ordinary Time, Cycle A - 19th Sunday, Year A -- Walking On Water

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on May 30, 2020
     | 3,002 views

    There is an element of test in Peter’s condition, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.” Peter asking Jesus “to command” him suggests the alignment of Peter’s will with the will of the Lord.

    IN THAT BOAT, which the church has always identified as herself, is where we want to be because it can provide the sure way for us to get to the other shore, to heaven; and, in this life, take us to new horizons. But along the way we are caught in a storm and face danger. 1.We need to pray ...read more

     | 215 views

    He practiced sorcery and amazed people with his deeds. Then Philip the evangelist arrived and preached Jesus. What Simon did after this tells me he was truly a false prophet, like Elymas Bar-Jesus.

    False Prophets-Simon Magus of Samaria (Note: This message is based on a sermon preached at New Hope Baptist Church near Fulton, MO on Sunday evening, 3-23-2025, but is not an exact transcription.)

    Peter’s mother-in-law is healed.

    Mark 1:29-31 Jesus, The Great Victor One of the first Bible verses I learned as a child is found in Psalm 122. Doubtless many of you know it as well.

    A Look At Peter’s Walk of Faith On The Water.

    INTRODUCTION The word walk in the bible often symbolizes the way we live, the way we act, and the way we conduct ourselves in a certain way.

    Peter’s view of handling Spiritual Warfare

The reason is because the non-parent offers what the text ...read more
