Description
Monologue/Drama: Look at Peter!
It’s the same man!
It really is!
Although you wouldn’t believe it, if you remembered his past behaviour.
Remember he was the coward who denied that he knew Jesus when he was challenged by that girl in the courtyard while Jesus was standing trial.
He’s also one of those special three, who were told to watch while Jesus prayed in the garden just before he was arrested. And what did Peter do?
He fell asleep. Too much wine and not enough concern for Jesus that’s what it was.
And when the soldiers came, what did he do? He went on the attack, cutting off one man’s ear and was roundly condemned by Jesus for doing it.
So he didn’t stick around. He just fled.
Was he there at the foot of that cross? No, he wasn’t.
