Studies in First and Second Peter

Class taught by by Pastor Bryan Burton

Summary

The Apostle Peter, that great and often flawed leader of the disciples, once proclaimed that Jesus Christ was and is “the Christ, the Son of the Living God.” Jesus responded, “Blessed are you, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father who is in heaven. . . I tell you I will build my church and the gates of hell and death will not overcome it.” In this class we will seek to know who Jesus Christ is from the perspective of the Apostle Peter. Furthermore, we will seek to know who we are as the Body of Christ, the Church, and the ways in which Christ is seeking to build His Church through you and me, together with all of God’s people.
