Jesus has a way of ministering to each of us, personally. We hope you had a great Easter celebration. We're going to bask in the afterglow of the Resurrection for a little while longer, as Jim has some more thoughts about the Lord inviting Himself to that "fishing trip" in John 21. This is a more informal talk, musing about the various men on that boat - since we have most of their names - and what this appearance may have meant to each one of them. We call this, Under the Shadow of His Celebration, Part 2.

Jesus knows where the fish are... and He knew where Peter's heart was. The One who used to ask His disciples for information -"Who touched Me?" "Who do men say that I am?" - now knows everything. That's one of the four things that the resurrected Christ revealed to the men on that John 21 fishing trip. We'll talk about all four today, including the revelation that Jesus controls the revelations; He comes to you.

Hey, didn't we have 7 names on the signup sheet for the men's fishing trip? I'm counting 8! As we move into an early Easter or Resurrection Sunday holiday, we'll look at an account that's well suited for the occasion. We're still tracking James, who's gone along on a fishing retreat with some of the guys. If you've read John's Gospel, you know the story: Jesus shows up. Jim will talk about four things that Christ came to reveal that morning. The sermon is, Under the Shadow of His Celebration.

What's the agenda for this meeting? The purpose of the transfiguration of Christ on the mountain was clear: to reveal to Peter, James and John the true nature of their Lord. It was a way to open their eyes to reality. But Jesus would gain something from this event, as well. That seems to be why Moses and Elijah were invited to the meeting. And their discussion centered on, not eternal glory, but the imminent crisis. Today we'll complete Jim's sermon, Under the Shadow of the Cloud, Part 2.

And then Jesus said something truly revolting. Cannibalism. Isn't that what the Lord was talking about? Only recently He was providing tasty fish sandwiches - and now He's telling us to eat His flesh and drink His blood? What in the world?! It would take an Israelite with a very strong stomach to even stick around to hear the explanation of that. And that reaction was exactly what Christ wanted. Let's join Jim in the Gospel of John, chapter 6.

Before the Mountain, was the Meal. Last week we looked at the Mount of Transfiguration experience for Peter, John, and especially James. But it will help us appreciate that event if we'll flip back a few pages, and see what was happening just before. Yes, we'll hear from our old and true friend, Context. And the context was a confrontation between Jesus, and some folks He had just fed. Pastor Jim calls this sermon, Under the Shadow of the Cloud, Part 2.

The Mount of Transfiguration changed everything for James - and for Jesus! As we try to gather any details we can about the life of James bar Zebedee, we climb with him up a mountain where the Lord will give him and two other disciples an unimaginable privilege - that of seeing His glory. And in many ways this was the beginning of the end. From that mountaintop it was a straight shot to Mount Calvary. Here's Jim with the finale of his sermon, Under the Shadow of the Cloud.

If you want to hear a word from Jesus, you might have to stop talking! We've begun to tag along with the Apostle James, John's brother. In the previous sermon we witnessed the call that James got from the Lord. That call certainly changed his life, but maybe not as much as the scene we'll study next: the Mount of Transfiguration. As usual, Peter steals the scene. And he seems to be ad-libbing when he should be listening. Today and tomorrow Jim will take us Under the Shadow of the Cloud.

Did Jesus have some kind of hypnotic power that drew people to follow Him? When we see the Lord walking by the sea and calling out to Peter and Andrew, and then to James and John, "Follow Me," and they just drop everything to follow Him, what's going on there? Did those men have a spontaneous realization about Him? Did He possess some personal magnetism? Or were they prepared for the call in some way that's not recorded in the Gospels? Most importantly, have we heard that call?

What was so great about James the Greater? James, the son of Zebedee, was not only part of the "inner circle" of disciples, he was the first Apostle to be martyred. That's a high honor. But today Pastor Jim will show us that we may have a lot in common with this man. He's not the author of the Epistle of James; that's the Lord's half-brother. So who was he? In our new series, we'll search the New Testament for details about this Christian leader who lived Under the Shadow of Jesus.
