Publisher's Synopsis
In Saint Peter: Flawed, Forgiven, and Faithful, biblical scholar Stephen Binz takes readers on a pilgrimage from Galilee to Rome-from the spot where Peter first dropped his nets to follow Jesus to the place where he gave his life out of love for his Lord. Through sound scholarship, first-hand experiences at places of pilgrimage, and spiritual reflection, Binz helps us embrace the reality that God works through broken human beings to accomplish truly beautiful things.
Ultimately, Saint Peter: Flawed, Forgiven, and Faithful reminds us that the papacy-from Peter to the present day-has always been filled by imperfect people and, mysteriously and wonderfully, that's exactly the type of person through whom God advances the Church!
