His life was one of boats, nets, deep water, and long nights on the sea. When the crowds pressed around Jesus on the shore of the Lake of Gennesaret, Christ stepped into a boat so that He could teach them from the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe boat belonged to Peter.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a small detail with profound resonance.
