Home Fellowship Discussion Guide, Week of October 10th

Q: Apart from God, what/who do you love most on this earth?

FIRST READ: John 21:15-19

Q: When Jesus asks Peter, “do you love me more than these?”, what are the “these” Jesus refers to? The other disciples? The fishing industry? Breakfast?

Q: What did Jesus mean when He commanded Peter to “Feed my lambs?” Whose lambs are they? Why did Jesus refer to them as “lambs” and not “sheep?” How was Peter to “. . . feed them?

Q: Why did Jesus ask Peter essentially the same question three times? Why did He shift to using the word, “tend?” instead of “feed?”

Q: Why was Peter “grieved?” (v. 17) Why did He shift back to the term “feed?” How are the apostles and elder/pastors commanded to “feed” and “tend?”

Q: What was Peter’s future path? Why did Jesus reveal Peter’s future path in following Jesus? (vs. 17)

Q: At the conclusion of this conversation, why did Jesus repeat the command, “. . . follow me?” (vs. 19) How did Peter’s journey with Jesus begin? (READ Matthew 4:18-20) Where does our journey begin?
