Peter: Apostle for the Whole Church (Personalities of the New Testament) (Paperback), by Pheme Perkins
Perkins describes the search for the historical Peter, and the influence his image has had, in Roman Catholic and Protestant ecumenical discussions. Pointing to portrayals of Peter in the Pauline and Johannine traditions, the synoptic Gospels, and the Book of Acts, Perkins argues that precisely because there is no single Petrine tradition in the New Testament, the apostle might serve as a unifying figure for incongruous forms of Christianity. Perkins argues that Peter should be viewed as a harmonizing figure who captures the Christian imagination not only because he is the most prominent of Jesus' disciples, but also because his weaknesses and strengths present a character accessible to the average Christian. Paperback.

Life of Peter: Fisherman, Disciple, Apostle (Christian Living Classics) (Paperback), by F. B. Meyer, Lance Wubbels
F. B. Meyer's devotional studies on biblical characters reflect a rare depth of spiritual experience. It is comforting to find that these great figures were not so different from ourselves - sometimes weak, indifferent, willful. Yet they had their moments of faith, humility, and courage, and God was able to use these for His greater purposes. God's faithfulness, which not only accepts but transforms such inconsistency, calls us to more effective Christian living. Paperback.

A Fragile Stone: The Emotional Life of Simon Peter (Hardcover), by Michael Card
Card delves deep into the "emotional life" of Peter, the disciple Jesus called "the Rock." We are wrong when we assume that this title came because of Peter's strength or perfect stability, Card warns; Peter was a flawed man and an unlikely choice to be a foundation. He did, however, eventually become this sure foundation: Card traces Peter's evolution through the Gospels and the Book of Acts to the mature expressions of leadership and care for the flock that we see in his two epistles. Hardcover.

Peter: Prince of Apostles (Paperback), by F. J. Foakes-Jackson
1927. A study in the history and tradition of Christianity. The purpose of this book is twofold: to give the ordinary reader an interest in the first days of Christianity by an endeavor to portray the Apostle who took the lead at its inception and acted as a pioneer in its diffusion. At the same time it is hoped that it may appeal to scholars to study the problem it suggests, namely, how far tradition is to be respected where direct historical material is scanty. Paperback.
