What do you think of when you hear the name 'Simon Peter'? Perhaps you immediately remember the time he denied three times that he knew Jesus—at the very time when Jesus was about to face the death penalty and needed his friends' support the most!
So what could we possibly learn from a man who failed like this? In this, the first of two books on Simon Peter's life, Helen Clark shows us that his story is one that should encourage us if we want to be followers of Jesus. We may find that we are more like Simon Peter than we thought, and that we make the same mistakes he made—but we can be transformed by following Jesus, just as he was.
