The Scarred Rock

7 minutes / 1 character

Description
The time is c.AD 65. Peter is old, just a few years from his death. He sits at a small table, writing one of his letters and speaking the words as he pens his thoughts. [NOTE: This sketch could also be played with Peter dictating the letter to an amanuensis (secretary)].

The bulk of Peter’s monologue is taken from scripture, except for a middle section in which he is moved to express his guilt over his denial of Jesus—followed by his joy over Jesus’ forgiveness of that sin.

Our four-year study of First Corinthians has now drawn to a close. All 170 sessions, in both text and audio, remain available at the First Corinthians page. More important, we are pleased to offer the complete study in one PDF volume! This makes an excellent resource for any study of the letter. All this is available at our First Corinthians page.

The writer to the Hebrews quotes from a number of important Psalms in his epistle/sermon. We have recently added A Five-psalm Preparatory Study for the Book of Hebrews: Psalms 102, 40, 8, 110, 95 —which supplies an essential preface to the Hebrews study. Even if you are one of the thousands who have already downloaded and used our Hebrews study, this new resource will contribute to your understanding of that book. And if you have not yet downloaded our popular Hebrews study, be sure to obtain this new five-psalm study as well, and work through it before beginning Hebrews.
