Facts:

Peter was one of Jesus' twelve apostles. He was an important leader of the early Church.

Before Jesus called him to be his disciple, Peter's name was Simon.
Later, Jesus also named him "Cephas," which means "stone" or "rock" in the Aramaic language. The name Peter also means "stone" or "rock" in the Greek language.
God worked through Peter to heal people and to preach the good news about Jesus.
Two books in the New Testament are letters that Peter wrote to encourage and teach fellow believers.

28:09 Peter said to Jesus, "We have left everything and followed you. What will be our reward?"
29:01 One day Peter asked Jesus, "Master, how many times should I forgive my brother when he sins against me? As many as seven times?"
31:05 Then Peter said to Jesus, "Master, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water." Jesus told Peter, "Come!"
36:01 One day, Jesus took three of his disciples, Peter, James, and John with him.
38:09 Peter replied, "Even if all the others abandon you, I will not!" Then Jesus said to Peter, "Satan wants to have all of you, but I have prayed for you, Peter, that your faith will not fail. Even so, tonight, before the rooster crows, you will deny that you even know me three times."
38:15 As the soldiers arrested Jesus, Peter pulled out his sword and cut off the ear of the servant of the high priest.
43:11 Peter answered them, "Every one of you should repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ so that God will forgive your sins."
44:08 Peter answered them, "This man stands before you healed by the power of Jesus the Messiah."
