Summary

Segment 1:

• Peter’s denial wasn’t casual—he disowned “The Man” with whom he walked.

• After denying Christ, Peter locked eyes with Jesus and wept bitterly.

• Jesus’ post-resurrection message singled Peter out—restoration was coming.

Segment 2:

• Peter’s failure was massive, but so was Christ’s mercy.

• Jesus didn’t just forgive—He re-commissioned Peter.

• Christians need a real plan for recurring sin—don’t wait to fall again.

Segment 3:

• When harm touches the innocent, righteous anger isn’t wrong—it’s biblical.

• The Idaho killer’s sentence feels like justice denied.

• Christians should care deeply about justice because God does.

Segment 4:

• AI is being used to groom and exploit—one woman exposed its darkness firsthand.

• Kids can bypass filters, and the internet keeps getting darker.

• The Church must shine light, not just shout “how awful.”
