This week for my church’s Come Follow Christ study we are reading the accounts in the New Testament of Christ’s suffering in Gethsemane. We are also reading about Peter’s denial and betrayal of Christ. I’ve always felt sad and slightly confused about that. Jared Halverson, affectionately known as “Bro Hal,” gives much insight into the suffering of the Savior and Peter’s actions. See videos below. They are soooo good! So many insights!

Part 1 is above, Part 2 is below.

He quotes a lot from the talk President Spencer W. Kimball gave at BYU in 1971 about Peter. You can listen to the audio of the text here. I’ve copied and pasted excerpts that Bro Hal shares in the videos below.
