This sermon examines the life of Thomas, the doubting disciple who initially struggled to believe in Jesus' resurrection. It looks at his journey from pessimism to declaring "My Lord and my God!" when seeing Jesus' wounds. Thomas is portrayed as representing the future acceptance of Jesus by the Jewish people. The sermon draws lessons about overcoming doubt, the importance of gathering with other believers, and boldly confessing faith in Christ. Thomas's transformation encourages modern followers of Jesus to persevere through periods of unbelief.

Andrew the apostle exemplified bringing others to Christ - his brother Simon Peter, a boy with loaves and fishes, and Greeks seeking Jesus. This sermon explores Andrew's zeal for evangelism and desire to learn about Christ's return, inspiring believers to follow his example in sharing the gospel and studying prophecy.

After looking at Peter's faith, Br. Nitish, focuses on his failures marked by the number three: taking his eyes off Jesus, proposing three tents at the Transfiguration, sleeping three times, and denying Jesus three times. He highlights Peter's restoration and how we can learn from his failures.

Br. Nitish continues to delve into Peter's character, highlighting his salvation, sacrifice, and leadership qualities. Peter's conversion through personal witness, his sacrifice to follow Jesus, and his leadership among the apostles demonstrate the importance of commitment, sacrifice, and diverse personalities in serving God.

Simon, as he was born, was born in the small town of Bethsaida, which is on the north side of Galilee. “Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.” (John 1:44) His name was Jonah, or Simon, son of Jonas, while Jonah is what he's called. So his father's name was Jonah. And at some point, Peter, his wife, his brother Andrew, and his mother-in-law moved to the bigger town of Capernaum, where Jesus would come to live after he was rejected at Nazareth. He became a believer when Andrew, his brother, introduced him to the Lord Jesus Christ.
