In this encounter with Peter, Jesus asks a piercing question, "Do you love me more than these?"  We are faced with the same question.  Is there anything in our lives challenging our devotion to Christ, challenging our ability to live out the Greatest Commandment to love God with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength?  Listen and discover. 

This is a teaching from John 17:1-11.  This passage is Jesus' prayer for himself and his disciples.  There is much to learn from the prayers of Christ.  Thanks for listening and be blessed.

Without the hope of the resurrection our faith is futile and we are as Paul says still in our sins.  Without the resurrection our highest aspirations for life would be meeting the demands of our flesh.  But because the tomb is empty we have the hope and promise of new life in Christ.  Thanks for listening and may God bless you.

This sermon helps us live in the hope and the truth of the resurrected life.  For believers, the resurrection is a vivid reminder of the good life we have with Jesus now and the even better life we look forward to in eternity.  To those yet to come to Christ this sermon helps them wrestle with and confront the reality of the resurrection and its impact on their lives.  Thanks for listening and may God bless you.
