On today's episode, we look at St. Peter's denial. This is a well-known element of Jesus's Passion, Death, and Resurrection. However, when we reflect on Peter's denial in light of the rest of his life's work, we see how St. Peter overcomes weakness and fear. St. Peter becomes a leader who boldly proclaims the risen Christ. St. Peter becomes a man driven by the mission of building Christ's Church. St. Peter becomes an example of how FAITH ENABLES ALTERNATIVE REALITIES.
In the end, like St. Peter, we can choose our direction. May his example inspire us to overcome the fear that is keeping us from building the Kingdom of God.
Let's get ready to practice.

Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
