Many centuries ago, a man named Peter stood on the edge of a boat in the Sea of Galilee. Like all people who find themselves on an edge - whether physical or metaphorical - a decision had to be made. Peter’s choice was to either to step out onto the water or remain in the boat. Not an easy ...read more

The setting is a round trip hike between Jerusalem and Emmaus. A couple of Jewish believers are heading home ...read more

based on 15 ratings

Until 1929, it was included in Protestant Bibles (in the section called "apocrypha" or "hidden things." I don’t know why they thought it was hidden.) It ...read more
