If you knew that you only had a short time to live, how would you live out your final hours and days? In John 14-16, we see Jesus giving His disciples their final instructions before the crucifixion. His living words gave them hope and encouragement in the midst of their doubt and anxiety.
Today we continue our new series going verse by verse through these three very important chapters. Jesus prepares the disciples by giving them the promise of the Holy Spirit and peace. And he continues to challenge them in how they love. If you are struggling with inner peace, this message will encourage you to keep calm and love Jesus!
