    "Why John Did Outrun Peter"

    Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Apr 11, 2005
    based on 24 ratings
     | 8,385 views

In context John records that he is, “The disciple whom Jesus loved.” When Peter was running to the tomb, no ...read more

    The disciples were disillusioned and disoriented after the crucifixion.

    I grew up in a family with four sisters and no brothers. There were a lot of downsides to this…which I won’t go into now. One upside, and maybe the only one, is that I had to have my own bedroom in the basement, along with my own bathroom. I loved to just go in my room and shut myself out from all ...read more
