Peter's Perils

May 24, 2026    Pastor Mike

In Mark 14, where do we leave off with Peter?


In scripture, how many times did Peter fail?


Peter made a ‘bold’ declaration Mark 14:29 at the meal, now is denying his Lord after trying to fight off the arresting guards and falling asleep in the garden, and will later have a very uncomfortable talk with Jesus! What should this teach us? John 21:1


Would you have thought Jesus would put Peter in charge, or even still count him an apostle, after all this?


Ever feel unworthy and ashamed of your poor testimony? How do you handle that?


Is there any significance to a Rooster as Jesus’ instrument of warning?


Peter was found warming himself at the fires of Jesus’ oppressors, do you sit with the scorners or the wicked?


With so many examples of exemplary and often godly saints in the bible who sinned famously, How should we digest this?


Do we have any reason to believe Peter learned valuable lessons?


Jesus later asked John 21:15 “Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?” What does this mean? What does it mean for us today?
