Peter: The Man Who Went On An Adventure With Jesus by Robby Roberson

 

From The Back Cover:

Peter: The Man Who Went On An Adventure With Jesus is a biographical study of the life of the apostle Peter, including each New Testament even where we encounter him. It is the story of his life from his first exposure to Jesus Christ until the last New Testament scene involving him. His life is so raw and real that it is applicable to all and has  lasting lessons for our own adventure with Jesus.

My Review:

I have often heard that Peter had foot in mouth disease! I can so relate to that! How many times have I stuck my foot in my mouth? But just like Peter our Lord forgives us, reproves us gently and builds us up to be better human beings and more like Him. This study of Peter's life is relatable, applicable and inspiring. There were several passages that touched my heart. Chapter two(The Day I Had A Sinking Feeling) really touched my heart several times and I had some favorite parts underlined:

"there are two kinds of storms: storms of correction, when God disciplines us, and storms of perfection when God helps us grow." "So remember (Peter would say), you can be right in the center of the will of God and the seas of life can really get rough!" 

Also in Chapter 2:

"You may be on the sea and you may be in a storm, but the Lord Jesus is in heaven praying for you(Heb. 7:25)! Be encouraged to endure. Be encouraged to do His will!"

Those are just a few passages that touched me. So many gems used from Peter's life to inspire us and to encourage us to not give up and to keep going on and growing in Jesus. 

If you desire a closer walk with the Lord be sure to grab this book and study about a man who walked with Jesus. He definitely had an adventure with the Creator and we can too!
