Peter's Role in the Early Church

Feeling Pulled in Every Direction? Grip on the Gospel Slipping? Find Living Hope and Stand Firm in a Hostile Culture with the Apostle Peter!

Joshua Lewis sits down with Marian Jordan Ellis with This Redeemed Life to unpack the life and letters of the Apostle Peter. Explore how his story gives ordinary believers a living hope in an age of deconstruction, culture pressure, and spiritual warfare. Discover how 1 and 2 Peter equip Christians to stand firm in suffering, live as “elect exiles” in a hostile culture, and embrace their identity as a royal priesthood and holy nation. We dive into Peter’s most difficult passages, address spiritual warfare, and discuss how to confirm our calling and election. 

From impulsive fisherman to faithful apostle, Peter’s journey is a model for the Christian life!

Hey Guys, Josh Lewis here. Have you ever wondered if the miraculous gifts of the Holy Spirit—like prophecy, healing, and tongues—really stopped after the apostles? Cessationists claim they vanished throughout church history, but that's a myth. In Remnant Radio’s new ebook, History of Spiritual Gifts: The Myth of Cessationism, I dive into church history to reveal the active use of spiritual gifts by early church fathers
