Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?” And they said, “Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and others Jeremiah or

  • ne of the prophets.” He said to them, “But who do

you say that I am?” Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” (Mt. 16:13-16) Caesarea Philippi

Sea of Galilee And Peter answered him, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.” He said, “Come.” So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water and came to

beginning to sink he cried out, “Lord, save me.” Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him, saying to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” (Mt. 14:28-31)
