St Peters Orthodox Church

Our Gospel reading today is from St. Luke chapter 5. It is the testimony of the miraculous catch of fish and the calling of the first disciples. What we really see here is the progression of an experience Simon Peter has with the Lord Jesus Christ that would forever change his life. In this progression we not only see important truths about our life with Christ, but we also see important truths about fulfilling the Great Commission. The fulfillment of the Great Commission begins and ends with Jesus Christ Himself. In His wondrous love for mankind, He invites us to join Him and be a part of all that He does for the salvation of souls.
