They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. 19 “Come, follow me,” Jesus said, “and ...read more

    What is your true worth ?

    (1) Introduction: This story shows that Peter and John’s worth was not as the world measures it. They had given up such wordly wealth (see Matthew 4-18-22) but they were now worth much more! John was named the ’beloved’ of Jesus (John 21:20) and Peter was later called a ’pillar’ in the church ...read more

    One of the most difficult things for a Christian is to resist temptation. Satan brings temptations to us and tries to make it easy and logical for us to fulfill legitimate needs. Jesus shows us just how crafty he is, and how to resist.

Wouldn’t it be great if every day was like the baptism of Jesus—with the Spirit of God descending like a dove on us and God telling us He is pleased with ...read more
