HIStory: A Six Week Study of the Gospel of Johnনমুনা
“Peter’s Worst Moment"
Peter was not doing well. First he is rebuked by Jesus for cutting off the high priest servant’s ear and then he denies knowing Jesus three times. He has one of those days when he simply failed his Savior.
Although we may never be in a situation like Peter, we all can have days when we fail God. We might not speak up at work for Christ when we know we should. We might back down when someone is getting picked on at school because of their faith.
Jesus knew that Peter would betray Him and yet He still loved him. Jesus also knows when we are going to fail Him and yet He still offers us His love and forgiveness. Don’t carry the guilt around with you, but rather confess it to Him and receive His mercy.

About this Plan
Jesus was more than just a figurative religious voice. He actually walked this earth as a man revealing to us the full nature of God. One of his best friends, John, took time to write down for us the account of his life, ministry, and teachings. This six-week study through the Gospel of John is not only history, but it’s also His Story.
