Griffith Thomas excells in spiritual depth, practicality and a simplicity of expression that make the most profound truths come alive with excitement. Warren W. Wiersbe
The Apostle Peter has two major parts: the first deals with the life and character of Peter and the second with the truth revealed in his Epistles. Accordingly, the reader will find a comprehensive spiritual evaluation of the Apostle Peter, including a discussion of many aspects of his life and witness, and a fine devotional exposition of 1 and 2 Peter. -John F.
