i think peter was chosen to be the rock because he is brave and strong and smart. you can tell he is brave because when Jesus was walking on the water peter invited him on to his boat and walked on water with him. Even though peter dined him 3 times jesus still believed in him because he knew that peter was going to lead the church in the right direction. he even died for the faith and he helped spread the word of the lord.

one lesson that future popes can learn from peter is to never stop believing in God and to always be brave. He taught them to always be brave no matter what. H taught us that no matter what happens always be brave by dying for the faith, he didn't have to he could have said he didn't believe and have lived but instead he toke his punishment. Even though not everyone believed in god peter still spread the word of the lord.

I think Jesus choose peter becuase he knew that peter would dirve the church in the right direction. he woul also set the church up the way jesus wanted him to and instill good morals into the church and continue to spread the word of the lord.if i were Jesus i would have choose Peter because he was strong in faith and he was a born leader. peter was a inspiration to us all and a good leader for other popes to look up to. He was also just a good man he wouldn't do anything bad and chorpic the church before it really got started. jesus also choos him because he was for the most part there for jesus.
