About this episode

The episode discusses the significance of Jesus' message of peace and purpose to His disciples in John 20:21.

Today’s Bible Verse: “Again Jesus said, ‘Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.’” — John 20:21 John 20:21 captures a powerful post-resurrection moment. Jesus appears to His disciples—who are fearful and uncertain—and speaks peace over them. But He doesn’t stop there. He immediately connects that peace to purpose: “As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.” Want to listen without ads?
