A Giving Heart Series

Contributed by Rick Stacy on May 28, 2009

Finding Jesus, again, was something the disciples had to do. The “old” Jesus was laid in the tomb. The “new” Jesus was now alive. Not fully understanding the Cross and His Salvation, they were mystified about His death and His purpose.

Finding Jesus Afterward Jesus appeared again to his disciples, by the Sea of Tiberias. It happened this way: 2 Simon Peter, Thomas (called Didymus), Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples were together. 3 “I’m going out to fish,” Simon Peter told them, and they ...read more

Contributed by Sean Harder on Nov 29, 2013

Preparing For Easter: Simon Peter-Sifted Now To Strengthen Later

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Mar 16, 2023

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 25, 2022

The very first thing that I noticed about our text is the doubling of Simon’s name in Jesus’ statement, “Simon, Simon”.

The doubling of words almost sounds like people when they stutter. Often people who stutter repeat their words. I love to hear people who stutter. I do not mean that in a derogatory way, I REALLY ENJOY HEARING PEOPLE TALK WHO STUTTER. Illus: A really huge muscular guy with a bad stutter goes ...read more

Jesus Says, Follow Me

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on May 23, 2021

What Jesus tells Peter says a lot about each of us. There may have been a time when we did pretty much as we pleased, but the time comes when that is no longer the case.
