Jesus' "Bread of Life" sermon was not a crowd-pleaser. It offended most people, including many of Jesus' own disciples who turned away and stopped following him because of it. In this passage from John 6, Jesus turns to his last remaining disciples and gives them a chance to leave, too. But Peter's remarkable and moving response to Jesus' invitation reveals the profundity of his love for him: a love that listens, that desires the other, and that embraces its own vulnerability. Deacon Lisa Elmers teaches from John 6:60-69.
