Meeting Jesus

• We’ve found the Messiah!

• Cephas/Peter = stone/rock

Fishers of Men

• “I am a sinful man”
• Left their nets
• Followed Jesus

Peter’s Family

• Jesus healed Peter’s mother-in-law
• Peter saw Isaiah’s prophecy fulfilled

Step of Faith

• Jesus walked on water
• Peter asked if he could go to Him
• Peter took his eyes off Jesus and began to sink
• Jesus reached out His hand and saved him

Confession of Faith

• Who do people say I am?
• Who do you say I am?
• “You are the Christ (Messiah),
  the Son of the living God.” – Peter
• I will build my church!

Palm Sunday

• Go on ahead and get a donkey
• Hosanna = Save us now

Passover – Last Supper

• Jesus washed the disciples’ feet
• “You will never wash my feet”
• “Wash my hands and head too!”

Peter’s Promise

• Jesus warned disciples they would all scatter when He was arrested
• Peter promised he would never leave or deny Jesus
• Jesus told him he would deny him three times

Take Aways

• Have you met Jesus like Peter?
• Do you know about Him or do you know Him as your Savior?
• Jesus invites you to repent and believe like Peter
• Are you following faithfully?
• Have you made promises you haven’t kept?
• Are you growing or plateaued?
• Is Jesus really Lord of your life?
