Episode # 191
Peter had some very public ‘failures’— his thrice denial of Jesus, his rebuke by Jesus, even his rescue from stormy waters after walking upon the sea. Peter was, however, PERSISTENT! He didn’t give up. That resilient and overcoming spirit is evident in 1 and 2 Peter, as he encourages the church to ‘hang in there’ against the very real persecution of King Nero and Roman society. Your faithfulness, Peter reminds them (and us) will be richly REWARDED!
