Episode 66: Get Behind Me Satan

The topic of this episode is Mark 8:33, where Jesus tells Peter “Get behind me Satan.” Pastor Andrew touches on the broader context of Peter’s position in the early church and his successors, gives us an illustration of how the story was transformed and deepened through the use of conflict, and calls for the demythologization of the passage, away from resting in the dualism of God and the Devil, “which does it a disservice.”
