Matthew 16:13 - 16:26

Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In this discourse, Steve Gregg reflects on the interaction between Jesus and his disciples at Caesarea Philippi. While taking his disciples away from the crowds for some spiritual inventory, Jesus asks them who people are saying he is and who they believe him to be. Peter responds by confessing Jesus as the Christ, which prompts Jesus to explain his upcoming suffering, death, and resurrection. The discourse touches on various topics, including the expected return of Elijah, the multiplication of food, and Simon Peter's name change to Bar-Jonah.
