## Resource

A reading of the final chapters of the Gospel of John, covering the crucifixion, resurrection, and post-resurrection appearances of Jesus. The narrative moves from the trial under Pilate to the restoration of Peter by the Sea of Tiberias.

## Highlights
- Main idea: The completion of Jesus' earthly mission with the declaration 'It is finished.'
- Key event: The discovery of the empty tomb by Mary Magdalene and the subsequent belief of the disciples
- Practical takeaway: The transition from physical sight to faith, as seen in the encounter with Thomas
- Failure mode: Peter's three-fold denial and subsequent three-fold restoration through the question of love
- Thematic conclusion: The vastness of Jesus' works, suggesting that a complete record would exceed the capacity of the world
