PETER: A MAN LKE US
Peter, one of the twelve Apostles of Jesus Christ, was a
simple man. I believe he was not much different than
us.
Peter was:
1. A _________ worker. In the fishing industry.
2. A ___________ owner. With ships and
employees.
3. A business ____________. With at least three
partners.
4. A ____________. With a mother-in-law.
5. A ___________. To Andrew.
Peter was an everyday kind of guy. Which brings a lot of
comfort to me. I Corinthians 1:26-29 tells us God uses
everyday kinds of people more than He does anyone
else.
Peter was:

_________________ responsive to the call of
Jesus.
Peter didn’t have the best education, nor was he a
student of the Old Testament writings. But he
responded to the call of Jesus when it came, and left all
that he had.
For us:
