And Upon this Rock, Peter's Transformative Journey from Fisherman to Follower to Foundational Leader; edited by Scot McKnight and Nika Spaulding.

I thought I would post this and this seems to be the only forum that fits. There is a new book about Peter by DMin candidates at Northern Seminary. It will be published this week by Cascade Books. The first comment on the back cover poses a great question that sets the tone of the book - "Have we robbed Peter to pay Paul?" I have a chapter in this book and, having spent four years with these scholars, I would recommend this to all. It should be available from Amazon in the next few weeks.

Thanks for the heads up on the new book. I'm not sure in my own life thats true as they had different missions as Apostles. And on a side note we have so much written by Paul in our N.T. compared to the other Apostles. So in that sense we might be "robbing" Peter. But I think most of us can identify with Peter more so than we do with Paul.
 
While we have more written by Paul in the New Testament, there is actually more written about Peter. He is the second most mentioned person in the New Testament (after Jesus, of course).

I have been contemplating whether Peter was the mentor of Paul in the ministry to the Gentiles. (See Acts 10, 11, and 15.) Of course, I am not sure whether anyone could prove that, but it is an interesting thought.

The book is out and is available on Amazon.
