Peter said, I swear to God, I never knew Jesus Christ.

The apostle Peter took a giant step backwards in his integrity and proclamation of the gospel.

But Pastor Greg Lawry says God grant second chances.

Believers can fall, believers can stumble, but believers can get up again.

For Peter, his setback was going to turn into a set up.

His mess would be turned into a message.

Golfers know the meaning of the word Mulligan.

Bad golfers know it very well.

A Mulligan is a do-over.

At take that swing over again, you're good.

Well thankfully the Lord allows Mulligan's in the spiritual life.

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive our sins.

Today on a new beginning, Pastor Greg Lawry helps us follow the biblical account of a certain

spiritual failure. We'll see what it was that led to the sin and how that sin was forgiven

and fellowship restored.

We have a story before us now in the Bible of a man who was overtaken by sin.

A man who probably never realized that one thing would lead to another and through five steps

he fell away from the Lord and this man was a full-fledged apostle of Jesus Christ.

And his name is known to all of us.
