San Pietro fu l'apostolo chiamato da Gesù a essere il primo papa con le parole: "Tu sei Pietro e su questa pietra fonderò la mia Chiesa". Divenne, insieme a san Paolo, fondatore della Roma cristiana stabilizzando la prima comunità di cristiani e testimoniando con il martirio la sua fedeltà a Cristo.

After a century of scholarship discounting even the possibility of knowing the Jesus of history, more and more contemporary scholarship is accepting the historicity of the Gospels and defending their reliability.

Rev. Murphy-O'Connor does this in this riveting series of talks.
