Quiet Time Notes

Bonds of Friendship

My soul is crushed with grief to the point of death - Mark 14:33-34

Jesus had 12 disciples but among them he had 3 who he called friends and had a special bond with Jesus - Peter, James, and John

The trio only was present at:

• Transfiguration when Jesus revealed his glory - Matthew 17
• When Jesus raised the daughter of a synagigue leader from the dead - Mark 5
• Gethsemane when Jesus faced his night of anguish and pain - Mark 14

It later had a far reaching effect:

• Peter founded and led the churchin Jerusalem
• John wrote a gospel and four other book of the Bible

Peter, James, and John enjoyed a special relationship with Jesus and it helped make the biggest impact for Christ in the world
