Have you fallen spiritually—or wondered whether God can forgive and restore you after failure? In this powerful message, “Are You Fallen? There Is Hope,” Pastor Greg Laurie explores Peter’s denial of Jesus and reveals how a believer can fall away one compromise at a time.
Drawing from Luke 22 and John 21, Pastor Greg identifies six warning signs that led to Peter’s fall: self-confidence, prayerlessness, self-reliance, following Jesus at a distance, wrong associations, and denial. More importantly, he shows that Peter’s failure was not the end of his story.
Jesus knew Peter would fall, prayed for his faith, welcomed him back, and gave him a renewed purpose. The same hope is available to you. Whether you have drifted from God, made painful mistakes, or have never personally received Jesus Christ, you can return to Him today. You may be fallen—but through God’s grace, you can be forgiven, restored, and recommissioned.
Watch until the end for an invitation to accept Jesus or recommit your life to Christ.
📖 Key Scriptures: Luke 22:31–62, John 21, Jeremiah 3:22, Hebrews 2:1, Romans 8:34, and 1 Peter 5
