Wandering Through God's Word with Wonder
When Jesus Doesn't Match Our Expectations
John 18:25-27; Matthew 26:34-35, 69-75; Mark 14:29-30, 66-72 - Peter had been adamant that he would never deny Jesus, yet when events began unfolding in a way he may not have expected, he did exactly that. This reflection wonders whether Peter was experiencing a crisis of faith as the Jesus he thought he understood no longer seemed to match what was happening—and connects that tension to the moments when our own expectations of what God will do collide with reality.
