They Had Been With Jesus – Spring 2013 – Message Series

To many Christians, the original Apostles can seem like superheroes. They were there to witness the miracles of Jesus. They even did miracles themselves. They were witnesses to the most important events of human history, the death and resurrection of Jesus. And they were empowered to take the Good News of God’s Love, Forgiveness, and Salvation through Jesus Christ to the known world and beyond. They wrote or dictated important documents that would become among the most famous literary pieces in history. Did we mention that they did miracles?

walkwithjesusOn the one hand, they became great people. But they started as ordinary people who encountered the extraordinary One True God in the form of Jesus Christ. And they were changed by those experiences with Him. Is the same transformation possible for us? And could the results in our lives be similar to the results in their lives? Those are among the questions Pathmakers Church Teaching Team Leader, Joe Meverden, seeks to answer in our Spring 2013 message series titled “They Had Been With Jesus,” an exploration of the letters of Peter and John cross-referenced with their experiences recorded in the Gospels. Attempting to trace the connections between their writings and their recollections of their adventures during Jesus’ ministry on earth may shed some light on who Peter and John were, who they became because of their encounter with Jesus, and what that might mean for us as we seek to follow Jesus in our own lives.

No one who meets Jesus can walk away unchanged. And that is exactly what happened to these two men because… “They Had Been With Jesus.”
