God's Mercy & My Failures Apr 10, 2016

Show notes

Because we’re imperfect people that live in an imperfect world, we all experience failure in life. The night Jesus was arrested, two of his best friends had massive failures: Judas betrayed Jesus, and Peter denied him three times. In this message at Saddleback Church, Pastor Rick Warren looks at how God’s mercy helps us overcome and move through our failures. He examines the differing responses between Peter and Judas to failure. You will discover the answer to three key questions: What causes personal failure? What should I do when I fail? And what does Jesus do when I fail?

In this message from Saddleback Church, Pastor Rick Warren continues The Miracle of Mercy with his message, God Can Use Anybody.
