"Raising Consciousness: John's Peter and the Beloved Disciple" A Sermon by Barrett Owen

The dynamic between Peter and the Beloved Disciple is something worth tracking in John’s Gospel. The two play a tit-for-tat game the whole gospel with the Beloved Disciple edging Peter out for most of the story . . . until John 21. There’s a rise in consciousness for Peter. Life is not about competition but rather about love. This lesson is for all of us.
