  <description>Breakfast on the Beach: Finding Our Way Back | Restored and Sent
In this message from John 21, we witness Jesus appear to His disciples on the shores of Galilee after His resurrection. Rather than rebuking them for going back to fishing, He prepares them breakfast—a powerful invitation to return, be restored, and walk forward in faith. This sermon explores how spiritual failure often pushes us back to old habits, but Jesus lovingly calls us to trust Him again. If you're feeling distant, discouraged, or spiritually stuck, this message offers hope and direction.
Key Insights:
1. Spiritual failure isn’t the end—Jesus meets us in it.
2. Obedience matters more than intention.
3. Life lived in your own strength leads to fruitless effort.
4. Jesus doesn’t just restore; He re-commissions.
5. When God speaks, your best move is to jump.
Scripture: John 21 (https://www.bible.com/bible/111/JHN.21.NIV)
Speaker: Matt Petty
Series: Restored and Sent
