When we look at the life of Peter, fisherman, disciple, leader of the Church, we find somebody who responded wholeheartedly to the call to 'come and see'. Come and meet Jesus, come and follow him, come and find your life being transformed. This book focuses on Peter, not because he is the best-known of Jesus' friends, nor the most loyal, but because he shows us what being a disciple of Jesus is actually like. Like us, he takes a step of faith and then flounders, and needs the saving touch of God to continue becoming the person he was created to be.

Come and See is also designed to help you begin to develop a pattern of Bible reading, reflection and prayer.

Twenty eight readings, arranged in four sections, offer short passages from the story of Peter, plus comment and questions for personal response or group discussion.
