For the story of Peter is the story of Jesus. Perhaps, if you and I do our best, the same will be said of us someday"--Michael Card.Simon Peter emerges from the pages of the Gospels with greater clarity and definition than any other person except Jesus. He is the Rock, the unambiguous leader of the Twelve. He could even be described as Jesus' best friend. But that is not all. "He was a fragile stone," writes Michael Card, "completely dependent upon his Master and Friend, Eeven as Jesus had insisted on his dependence on the Father."In this landmark book, songwriter and musician Michael Card explores the dynamic, contradictory life of the apostle Peter. The fruit of years of careful study, A Fragile Stone revisits well-known passages and discovers unexpected insights, painting a portrait of Peter that is both familiar and jarring. With a scope spanning the entire New Testament, Card reveals how the impetuous fisherman of the Gospels was transformed into the pivotal leader of the early church. The life of Simon Peter thus serves as a model for Christian discipleship, offering hope that we likewise can be changed as Jesus calls us to follow him. 548224 2003 A Fragile Stone: The Emotional Life of Simon Peter total:8|5:4|4:4| 8 36 16 2 5 0 false false Wed Jul 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Jul 14 04:43:54 -0700 2009 Tue Jul 14 04:46:38 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Tue Jul 14 22:15:36 -0700 2009 Tue Jul 14 22:17:12 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Nov 10 03:05:15 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 10 03:05:15 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Tue Jun 09 11:24:19 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 09 11:24:19 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Jun 04 08:19:04 -0700 2009 Thu Jun 04 08:19:04 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Wed Apr 29 10:51:58 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 29 10:51:58 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Apr 18 14:24:39 -0700 2009 Sat Apr 18 14:24:41 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Mar 23 21:11:33 -0700 2009 Mon Mar 23 21:11:36 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Wed Nov 19 13:47:31 -0800 2008 Wed Nov 19 13:47:31 -0800 2008 4 0 false false Sun Jun 01 16:46:49 -0700 2008 Sun Jun 01 16:46:49 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Mon May 19 05:15:20 -0700 2008 Mon May 19 05:15:20 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Mon Apr 14 07:03:44 -0700 2008 Mon Apr 14 07:03:50 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Sun Jan 13 18:17:30 -0800 2008 Sun Jan 13 18:17:30 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Sun Dec 09 20:35:01 -0800 2007 Sun Dec 09 20:35:01 -0800 2007 5 0 false false Fri Jul 27 07:54:40 -0700 2007 Fri Jul 27 07:54:40 -0700 2007 0 0 false false Fri Jun 22 05:05:31 -0700 2007 Fri Jun 22 05:05:48 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=567268
