Back to EpisodesTired of Proving Yourself? Jesus Has One Question | John 21:15 | 5-Min Daily Devotional
Description
What if the most important question Jesus ever asked you had nothing to do with what you've done wrong - or what you're planning to do better? On a quiet beach after Easter, Jesus meets an exhausted, guilty, failing Peter. And he asks just one thing.
This five-minute devotional on John 21:15 could change how you start your day.
In this episode:
- Why Jesus doesn't ask about your failures - he asks about your love
- What Peter's restoration on the beach teaches us about identity and calling
- The order that changes everything: love first, then serve
- A 30-second practice to reset your whole day - wherever you are
