Description
Peter grew up Jewish. Since the time he was a little boy, he knew that God would someday fulfill the Old Testament's greatest prophesy - the Messiah who would come to deliver His people. No doubt, all Jewish residents hoped it would happen in their lifetime. Peter was fishing when Jesus came by and extended an invitation to follow Him. Peter accepted, and this answer turned his ordinary life into an extraordinary adventure. Sheryl invites you on a 9-week journey to come alongside this unlikely candidate and observe what he witnessed. Peter was an eyewitness to all the events that transpired in the first century. What we find, though, is that Peter is not any different than any of us. In the early days, Peter struggled with his faith, made mistakes, and he was impulsive. But all of his experiences only prepared him to carry on the work Jesus began as he became an instrumental leader of the early church. This Bible study explores Peter's early life with Jesus, the foundation of the early church in the Book of Acts, and his writings to the believers scattered throughout Asia Minor: 1 and 2 Peter.
