Between the Savior and the Sea
Between the Savior and the Sea | Bob Rice
1 post | 2 read
When Christ was on the cross... where was Simon Peter? "Between the Savior and the Sea" tells the Gospel story through Simon Peter's eyes. It not only brings to life the famous moments of the Gospels, it also goes where they are silent: What miracles occurred when Simon Peter and the other disciples were sent off two by two? How did he know that Jesus was the Christ? And what was he thinking when he denied him? Led to experience things beyond his wildest imagination, Simon Peter felt torn between being a fisherman and a "fisher of men," caught between the Savior and the sea.

Pickpick

With a scriptural backbone, Peter and the apostles are fleshed out using Imagined conversations and secondary characters. Humanizing details bridge between exemplars of faith and those trying to follow that example. Rice's moving Passion narrative left me with a greater appreciation for the Gospels.
