Few institutions have shaped the world as powerfully—or as controversially—as the Roman Catholic Church.
It is the oldest, largest, wealthiest, and most influential church on earth. At its helm stands Pope Francis, whose popularity eclipses politicians, celebrities, and world leaders alike. No one draws larger crowds or commands more global attention.
Central to the Church’s authority is a bold claim: that its lineage traces back to the apostle Peter himself—and that Jesus established Peter as the foundational leader of His church (Matthew 16:18).
But is this what the Bible actually teaches?
Did Jesus truly place Peter at the head of an earthly hierarchy?
In this concise and compelling book, Steve Wohlberg opens the Scriptures to examine these claims with clarity and care. Through a thoughtful look at the biblical evidence, he reveals what Jesus really said, what the apostles truly believed, and where the authority of the Christian church is meant to stand.
