The Life of Apostle Peter
With Rick Steves
(Available December 1, 2007)

Peter is a guy who has fish scales on his hands, who wound up
being handed the scales of ecclesial justice, by Jesus.
                                                                   N. Clayton Croy

Join public television travel host and guide book author Rick Steves
as he recounts the story of the Apostle Peter from his early days as a fisherman, through his three-year adventure with Jesus to the tumultuous events surrounding Jesus’ death and resurrection.  The Apostle Peter was an eyewitness to the three-year public ministry of Jesus, his death – and most importantly for Christians – his resurrection.

Joy A. Schroeder, N. Clayton Croy and Walter F. Taylor Jr. of Trinity Lutheran Seminary in Columbus, Ohio, provide scholarly background as Rick weaves together the Apostle’s life. The video recounts his transformation from fisherman to charismatic leader of the early church and the legend of his martyrdom in Rome. Find out why Christians everywhere look to Peter as a model for what it means to be a follower of Jesus.

“The Life of Apostle Peter” is made possible through support from the
Mission Investment Fund of the ELCA.
