Road to Pentecost: Five Days of Spiritual Renewal

DAY 2 OF 5

Celebrating the Recovery!

Read and Reflect

As you read John Chapter 21, look for answers to the following questions:

• Who went fishing in John Chapter 21, and what happened?

• How did the disciples realize that the man on the shore was Jesus?

• What command does Jesus give Peter after each affirmation of love?

Read John Chapter 21.

Daily Dive into God’s Word

Summary: In John Chapter 21, Esther Sisulu and our teacher, John Mathews, focus on the restoration of Peter after his denial of Jesus. This chapter recounts Jesus appearing to his disciples by the Sea of Tiberias, where they return to fishing but catch nothing until Jesus instructs them. After a miraculous catch, Jesus has breakfast with them and asks Peter three times if he loves him, mirroring Peter's earlier denials. Each time Peter affirms his love, Jesus commissions him to take care of his followers. The theme of the day is "celebrating the recovery," highlighting Jesus' forgiveness and the re-establishment of Peter despite his previous failures.
