In this moving episode of I Overcome, Jim and Sherry take listeners deep into the post-resurrection appearance of Jesus to Peter in John 21:15–19—a powerful story of failure, guilt, redemption, and restoration. With raw honesty and biblical insight, they explore how Peter’s three-time denial is met by Jesus’ threefold invitation to love and lead: “Feed my sheep.” This episode highlights the heart of Jesus as He gently but firmly initiates Peter’s healing, refusing to let shame define his future.
Jim and Sherry reflect on how Jesus calls each of us to confront hidden guilt, unresolved pain, and personal failure—not to shame us, but to restore and recommission us. Listeners will find encouragement in the message that no mistake is too great for God’s grace, and that restoration always leads to renewed purpose.
