I Am Peter

As we read through the gospel reading for this Sunday at text study we were noting how Peter had gone from hero last week ("You are the Rock upon which the church will be built") to zero ("get behind me satan"). As we recognized this move we also noticed how Peter is so much like each and everyone of us. One minute we "get it" and the next minute we are clueless... at least in terms of faith. It led many to want to exclaim, "I Am Peter" ... which reminded me of a famous movie scene.
