Did you know that Jesus continually singled out Peter as the head of His newly established Church?
Even though John “the Beloved” stayed with Jesus until His death on the Cross, St. Jude was a cousin of Jesus, and St. Paul wrote more books in the New Testament, none of these men were named Pope (even after Peter).
In our St. Peter Glory Story, you will learn how Jesus clearly marked Peter as the leader of His newly established Church. Through an engaging audio story, your children will learn how Jesus again and again fulfilled the prophecies of the Old Testament–and how the practices of the Old Covenant are made new in the New Covenant.
In this audio drama, your children will learn:
- which Gospel was written based on Peter’s memories,
- what the “temple tax” was and why Jesus paid it for Peter,
- who the “Master of the Palace” was in the Old Kingdom of David,
- why Peter pictured holding keys (and what those keys signify),
- what the “Sign of Johah” is (and how it relates to Peter),
- and SO MUCH MORE!
As the Church prepares to elect a new Pope, now is the time to ensure your children KNOW how Jesus established the Papacy (and how this is clearly laid out in Scripture!) through the St. Peter Glory Story!

This is the story that made one of the Holy Heroes Guides want to be an archaeologist!
In 1939, an unsuspecting team of workmen unearthed an early Christian grave beneath the Vatican. Their surprising discovery launched a secret, often contentious quest to discover the long-lost burial place of the Apostle Peter while the Nazis ruled and a world war was waged above them.
The amazing true-life story of the discovery of the bones of Saint Peter after thousands of years–including all the false leads and brilliant deductions of those working on it for decades!
You’ll learn so much about the growth of the Catholic Church through the centuries of persecution and the building (and rebuilding!) of magnificent structures over the tomb of the first Pope.
For teens with specific questions, this book is a MUST-HAVE!
Pope Fiction: Answers to 30 Myths offers a tour-de-force refutation of 30 different biblical and historical arguments raised against the papacy.
Arranged in 30 tightly focused chapters, Pope Fiction provides a balanced, comprehensive overview of the major arguments against the papacy and provides the biblical, historical and commonsense responses to those arguments.
Fr. Ray Ryland, a former Protestant minister and now a Catholic priest, says, “In a very readable style, Pope Fiction catalogs and refutes those fictions charitably and completely. Had it been available when I first began to be drawn to the Church, my journey home would have been years shorter.”
