Continuing his message on Peter at the Nebraska CFO in 1956, Willard Ireland explains the deeper word “cherish” behind Jesus’s third question. He also recounts Jesus telling a distracted Peter, “you follow me.”
Willard Ireland walks through Peter’s threefold restoration on the shore after the resurrection. He traces how the question “Do you love me?” deepens each time Jesus asks it, and closes with the charge to feed the sheep. The talk was given to the 1956 Nebraska CFO.
Frank Laubach and Louise Eggleston answer written questions at the 1956 Nebraska CFO on teaching adults to read, on praying toward a sleeping person’s subconscious, and on knowing God’s will. Laubach finds his own work by “trying the doorknobs” to see which one opens, and a camper whose healing has not come is told to ask for “more of Christ” rather than more prayers.
At the Nebraska CFO in 1956, campers hear how a son lost his driver’s license for speeding, and how a father who would not telephone the judge showed a love that is also justice. Ruth Robison also tells of the lunch she was asked to pack for houseguests driving on to Florida. She planned cold cuts and cookies, then lay awake until the Spirit named fried chicken, hot biscuits and chocolate cake, and woke her at five to make it.
