Virtual Worship Service for Victoria (Virginia) UMC, Sunday, August 23, 2020
12th Sunday after Pentecost
Matthew 16:13-20
Messiah, Son of the Living God
Peter confesses that Jesus is the Christ, the Messiah, the King of kings!
Yes, Peter, who would go on to deny 3 times even knowing Jesus!
Still, Peter is the rock on which Jesus builds His church!
And, anyways, why is Peter called Simon sometimes?!?
