The Apostolic Tradition: Peter

Like Paul, Peter was devout Jew who was deeply rooted in Jewish traditions. Paul's education and mission targeted the Gentiles. Paul initially vehemently denied Him before a dramatic conversion while Peter quickly accepted Jesus as the Messiah. Their personalities differed as well, with Peter being impulsive and relational, while Paul was determined and intellectually engaged. However, both experienced transformative moments that led to humility and dependence on God's grace. This weekend we will see, once again, that humility is the key to success in the Kingdom of Christ.
