Peter: An Inconsistent Friend

It seems to be true. Throughout history, some of the most successful and admirable people are remembered for a glaring mistake or two. The accomplishments are forgotten memories, while the moments of failure seem to linger on through the ages. And so it is with the Apostle Peter. He was a man of great faith and admirable courage. Yet he most often is remembered as an inconsistent follower of Jesus. Even in his moments of inconsistency, however, there are great lessons to be learned about discipleship.
