Jesus' final instructions before ascension are a summons to focus on what matters most! Witnessing is more important than knowing all of the "When's and How's" of eschatology; and the Kingdom of God is far more important than the little kingdoms of this world.

We could not leave John 21 and the cookout by the sea just yet. Jesus has some compassionate but pointed work to do in Peter. It is necessary to dig down to the root of his sin and then lead him into renewal. Grace!

Jesus would appear to 500 or so people during the 40 days between resurrection and ascension, but in no other recorded appearance do we have such a clear and transformative look into the heart of our Savior than in this cookout at the beach with the disciples! Here Jesus brings all the power of his resurrected life into the work of redeeming his discouraged disciple, Peter. From denial to restoration, in the end, Jesus is still the center of it all!

The disciples had known Jesus for three years, but everything was changing now. He had died, been buried, but was alive again, and by his grace he was helping them piece it all together, opening their understanding, and they would never be the same! We too should be revolutionized in our soul as ambassadors for our risen Lord, but what would that look like in a culture like ours?

After the resurrection Jesus spent forty days here on earth before ascending back to heaven and to the throne. What was he doing during that time? Largely, he was getting his team ready to go into all the world. From resurrection morning to the day of Pentecost was 50 days and during these eight weeks the disciples were being prepared for their next stage of the kingdom mission!

In a final analysis of the Passion Week and Post Resurrection week, it becomes clear that one of the greatest needs of our life is to have a bigger heart for God! Would it not be good to have a greater capacity for more of God in our soul? What does that mean and what can we do to help this?

The Temple, the Holy Place of the Holy God. It has always been a revered and sacred place. But now that the Lord has risen, where is His dwelling? Is it the building we so commonly refer to as "church," or is it somewhere more significant?
Discouragement, Despair, Disillusionment - these are words that could be said the disciples experienced in the aftermath of the crucifixion. But what did Jesus have to say on Resurrection Day? His words were powerful - and personal - and can provide continued help for us today!
