    When Jesus shows up at Peter's work, Jesus destroys the artificial divide between sacred and secular. Wherever the Lord is, is ripe for a miracle. And if our life belongs to the Lord, he is welcome to any and all of it.

    All or Nothing Faith Luke 5:1-11 [Please contact me at kerry.n.haynes@gmail.com for sermon outline in Word.] We have this artificial divide in our world between “sacred” and “secular,” between things that are of God and everything else.

    The darkness in this world spreads, but the light of Christ shines. And it illumines us and radiates through us to the world.

    I want to draw your attention again to the beginning of this passage, where it say, “When he had gone out…” (John 13:31). Who is John talking about here? Who is it that has just “gone out”?

    The Holy Spirit transforms the disciples from men of fear to men of faith.

    The gospels tell the story of fearful disciples who desert Jesus after his arrest. Peter denies him three times(John 18:25-27), and then joins the other disciples who hide from Roman soldiers. At Christ's crucifixion, only John stood by the cross of Jesus with the three women: Mary the mother of ...read more
