The Difference Between Success And Failure

The Gospel According to John John 21:1-14

  • Rev. Dr. Paul Kacsur
  • April 26, 2026

In this sermon on John 21, Rev. Dr. Paul Kacsur reflects on the disciples’ night of failure, catching nothing until Jesus appeared and changed everything. He reminds us that human effort alone often falls short, but obedience to Christ brings true success. When Jesus told them to cast their nets again, their empty nets became full, showing His power to provide beyond expectation. The breakfast on the shore reveals Christ’s care, meeting both their physical and spiritual needs. The message emphasizes that God’s miracles are real and should never be taken for granted, even when others doubt. Dr. Kacsur encourages believers to respond when they sense God’s presence, trusting that He can do anything. Ultimately, the sermon teaches that true success is found not in our efforts, but in faithful obedience to Jesus and His Word.
