"The former account I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach." Acts 1:1 NKJV Luke, the beloved physician, (Col 4; 14) sets out to investigate the remarkable story of Jesus and becomes part of the story. This wonderful book of Acts is meant not only to be studied, but also to be lived out.   Message by Pastor Dave Johnson: From the Series on the Book of Acts. 

"...the world itself could not contain the books that would be written." Jn 21: 25 This morning we come to the end of one of the greatest books ever written! And wouldn't you think that John might be proud of it? But no! Look at the incredible humility of this man. John sees his book as just one in the 'pile' that would cover the whole earth if they could ever be written! Let's see what that means...

"Simon said to Him, 'Yes Lord, you know that I love you.' He said to him: 'Feed my lambs.'" Jn 21: 15 Isn't it amazing? One of history's greatest Christians was actually one who stumbled; who wavered! In fact, he was giving up ministry altogether to go back to his secular job! Oh, until He met the Savior once again! And then everything changed! Let's take a look... Message by Pastor Rod Schorr, Calvary Chapel Old Towne, Orange, CA  From his series: The Gospel of John: Truth for a World in the Grip of a Lie

"When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment, for he had removed it, and plunged into the sea." Jn 21:7 This morning, we are catching Peter at his very lowest. He seems ready to give up his calling in Christ and go back to his fishing! Oh, but hold on! That's going to change! He's going to plunge in!

"Jesus said to him: 'Because you have seen me, you believe? Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe.'" Jn 20: 29 There was a direct correlation between Thomas' absence from that first gathering and the state of his heart. He was now a skeptic.  What he witnessed at the Cross had disillusioned him for good! But, oh!, God loves the skeptic!--Thomas' story is the proof of it--and if you're a skeptic too, you should know that He loves you as well.
