John 21:1-19 | If Jesus were to ask us today, “Do you love me?” how would you respond? As followers of Jesus, many of us would likely respond as Peter does in our Gospel today, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you!” But each time that Jesus pushes Peter, Jesus points more and more to what it really means to love him and his children. As Peter received a call to go froth from witnessing his resurrected Lord to “feed his lambs,” join us for worship as we once again witness our resurrected Lord and are sent forth with a call to embody the depth of God’s abundant love in the world today.
