This question goes much deeper than it seems. The answer lies in Jesus’s final moments with his disciples before ascending to heaven and has everything to do with **Peter's role as the leader of the church**. What did Jesus mean when he told Peter to "feed his sheep," and how did his specific word choice in the original Greek for **unconditional love** change everything? And why did this moment perfectly correspond with Peter’s three denials of Jesus? Join us as we explore the deeper meaning of this powerful conversation between Jesus and Peter and how it sets the stage for the rest of Christianity. In this video, Pastor Nelson answers your question: Why did Jesus ask Peter “Do you love me?” three times?
