In this episode, Terry Peer and Terry L. Peer walk through Peter’s journey step by step, highlighting his impulsive faith, public failures, deep restoration, and Spirit-empowered leadership after the resurrection. We explore: - Why Jesus changed Simon’s name to Peter (“the rock”) - Peter stepping out of the boat and walking on water - Peter’s bold confession that Jesus is the Christ - His denial of Jesus — and the crushing weight of that moment - The resurrection meeting that changed everything Peter preaching the gospel on Pentecost and opening the Kingdom to Jews and Gentiles His growth into a shepherd of the church amid persecution This episode is a powerful reminder that spiritual growth takes time, failure does not disqualify faith, and Jesus is extraordinarily patient with imperfect people. Lester’s Feet Foundation Segment This episode also includes an update on Maddie, a young girl courageously battling cancer, and how the Lester’s Feet Foundation is supporting her family during long-term treatment.
