The Apostle Peter

The Gospel accounts tell us that Peter’s original name was Simon, a common Jewish name, and his father’s name was John. Simon grew up in the town of Bethsaida on the shores of the Sea of Galilee, then later moved to Capernaum. He first heard about Jesus of Nazareth from his brother Andrew. After that, Simon became one of Jesus’s key disciples. Simon was an insider to some of the most glorious moments in Jesus’s life, such as when Jesus revealed his divine nature on the top of a mountain in the event known as the Transfiguration. Jesus later gave him the name Peter, which means “rock.”

John's Second & Third Letters

In this episode, we’ll cover John’s second and third letters in the Bible’s New Testament. These are super short, each only one chapter long. In both, John referred to himself as “the Elder,” probably because he was an old man at this point in history, having outlived all the other apostles. He used each letter to deliver snapshots of how different people handled difficult situations in life.
