In this Commentary Clip Exclusive, Tony compares the conversation we witnessed last week between Jesus and Peter to what Jesus tells us about listening to the Good Shepherd’s voice this weekend. As Tony explains, Jesus calls us this weekend to remain focused on Him and His voice, knowing that the moment we are distracted we are at risk of falling the way St. Peter did.
