“Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord.” Peter’s reaction to a miraculous catch of fish is more fearful than joyful in the presence Jesus’ holiness. In final episode of The Magnificent 37, we examine three miracles involving the disciples’ work and witness: the initial calling of the fishermen in Luke 5, the post-resurrection catch in John 21 that restores Peter, and the healing of Malchus’ ear in Gethsemane. These signs reveal a Savior who provides abundantly for His Church, restores the fallen to service, and extends mercy even to His enemies in the hour of darkness.  

The Rev. Dr. Matthew Richard, pastor of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Minot, ND, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Luke 5:1–11, John 21:1–14, and Luke 22:50–51.
