The Season Of Failure (5 of 7)
The Seasons of Life
Dr. Stan Coffey
Luke 5:1-11
We're talking about the seasons of life. And today we're going to look at another of the seasons of life. If you have your Bible, you might like to open to Luke 5. I invite you to read God's word with me today.

So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both boats so full they began to sink. When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus' knees and said, 'Go away from me, Lord, I am a sinful man.' For he and all his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken, and so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon's partners. Then Jesus said to Simon, 'Don't be afraid. From now on you will catch men.' So they pulled their boats up on shore, l ...
