More Than These

Sunday, April 26, 2026 - In this sermon preached by Pastor Leslie, we explore Jesus’ powerful post-resurrection conversation with Simon Peter on the shores of Galilee. After Peter’s public failure and denial of Christ, Jesus meets him not with condemnation, but with grace—providing food, fellowship, and restoration before asking the deeply personal question: “Do you love me more than these?” The sermon examines Peter’s journey from bold disciple to broken follower and ultimately restored leader, showing how the grace of God meets us even in our failures. It challenges believers to identify the “these” in their own lives—the careers, ambitions, comforts, relationships, and distractions that can compete with wholehearted devotion to Christ. Through Jesus’ repeated command to “feed my sheep,” the message reminds us that genuine love for Christ must move beyond words into faithful obedience, service, sacrifice, and transformed priorities.
