This episode explores Peter’s bold confession, “You are the Christ,” and the deeper question Jesus immediately presses: what does that really mean? While Peter knew the right words, he struggled with their meaning when Jesus revealed that being the Christ meant suffering, the cross, and resurrection. With no “wiggle room,” Jesus firmly teaches that salvation comes only through His death and rising, for us. The episode shows how this clear, unchanging truth not only defines who Jesus is, but also shapes the Christian life—calling believers to deny themselves, take up their cross, and follow Him. In learning what it truly means to confess Christ, we are formed to live and speak with the same confident faith, love, and forgiveness the world needs.
