Becoming Peter

How did Simon become Peter? How did he become the most influential leader in the Christian Church? Jesus saw Peter. Jesus knew his name, and called him to become more. Jesus sees us, knows our name, and calls us to become more. Much like Peter's, our journey of "becoming" starts with being chosen, and– choosing to follow Jesus. There will be times we make great progress, times we hold our ground, and times we backslide. Will we give ourselves the permission, the grace, the space to journey in becoming more?
