Jesus & Our Failure (Risen Savior — Lesson 5)


Listen Later

Pastor Matt Hodge (Discipleship Pastor) - ​​​John 21:1-25 (John 13:12-17 & 31-38; 18:25-27; 21:1-25; Matthew 26:75; 1 John 1:6-10; 1 Peter 2:20-25)

 

In John 21, we find one of the most tender and powerful scenes in the resurrection accounts—Jesus meeting Peter after his greatest failure. After denying Christ three times, Peter returns to fishing, only to encounter the risen Lord on the shore. What follows is not rejection, but restoration.


This lesson explores how Jesus meets us in our failure, restores our identity, and redefines our purpose. If you’ve ever wondered whether your past disqualifies you from being used by God, Peter’s story offers a powerful answer: grace has the final word!

 

Series description:

In the days after He rose, Jesus met His followers in their most real and raw moments—grief, doubt, and failure. This series explores those encounters and invites us to experience the same living Jesus who still meets us, restores us, and calls us to a deeper faith.
