Read John 18
10Just then Simon Peter, who was carrying a sword, pulled it from its sheath and struck the Chief Priest's servant, cutting off his right ear. Malchus was the servant's name.
11Jesus ordered Peter, "Put back your sword. Do you think for a minute I'm not going to drink this cup the Father gave me?" (The Message)
Some thoughts to ponder and share with others:
· What might it have been like to be there as one of the disciples when Jesus was arrested?
· What stories of Peter’s actions alongside of Jesus do you remember?
· Have you ever taken action for God? How did it turn out?
· What does it feel like to want to “defend” Jesus?
