The Third Day: Peter

Second Sunday in Lent. Rev. Daniel F. Bogre will continue the Lent Sermon series, “The Third Day,” with the sermon, “Peter,” based on John 21:15-19.

I cannot imagine what was going through Peter’s mind when he knew that Jesus was put in the tomb.

I can hear him saying, “Now what? I gave up everything and now Jesus is gone.”

In the text we hear Jesus say to Peter, “Follow me,” at the end of the reading. I feel like it should say, “Follow me-AGAIN!”

I wonder how many times Jesus has had to call all of us to follow him more than once in our lifetime.

How many times have you been called to follow? If you are wandering today, Jesus is calling you to follow—AGAIN.
