February 3, 2019 | John 21: 15-22
How do you come back from failure? How can you move forward after direct disobedience to God? Peter’s Here to There journey no longer looks the same. Peter denied knowing Jesus three times after he boldly proclaimed that he would never abandon Jesus. How do you come back from that? Will God use the unfaithful to fulfill His plans? John 21 gives us insight into how God restores His disciple, Peter, and how we, too, may be restored in our Here to There journey.

Peter’s Denial Luke 22:54-62

  • But he denied it, saying, “Woman, I do not know him.”
  • But Peter said, “Man, I am not.”
  • But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about.”

Peter’s Reinstatement John 21:15-22

  • “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” He said to him, “Feed my lambs.”
  • Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” He said to him, “Tend my sheep.”
  • “Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Feed my sheep.”
