‘Jesus, the living stone rejected by men but, in the sight of God, chosen and precious’.
This is written by Peter – a tough, rough fisherman who had spent several years walking, eating, and listening to Jesus as he taught, healed, and even walked on the water he fished in. He had seen Jesus rejected by men and was to know the same rejection and crucifixion that Jesus endured. Our sermon will be asking how you and I can be living stones like Peter tried to be and sometimes be rejected.
