Why Did Jesus Say Peace Be With You in John

In John 20:19-23 Jesus said to the disciples, "Peace be with you." Curiously, he said it to them twice. Why twice? You would think that one time would have been enough, no? What happened? Did they not hear Jesus the first time he said, "Peace be with you"?

In this video I mention that I created another video where I break down how I crafted one of the sermons I preached during the Easter season of 2018. The sermon is based on Acts 1:3-8. I'm providing this video as an exclusive behind the scenes look at how I prepared for this sermon. The video is 25 minutes long. In it, I talk about some of the historical, theological and cultural realities that underlie Acts 1:3-8. Knowing this information will help you feel confident as you craft an incredible sermon that will have lasting impact on your listeners!

In this teaching over John 20:-19-23 I share a sermon idea with you based on this passage where Jesus told the disciples, "Peace be with you." Did I mention he said "Peace be with you" twice? I mention it again because there's actually a pretty important reason that Jesus said "Peace be with you" twice.

As you'll learn in this teaching, the reason Jesus said "Peace be with you" twice has to do with the meaning of the word "peace." Well, maybe not so much the meaning of "peace" as the concept of "peace."

After you watch this teaching you'll have a better understanding of why Jesus said "Peace be with you" (twice!) I'm confident that you will be able to use this information to craft an incredible sermon or teaching that will help further Equip those God has placed under your care.
