The little-known true story of the life of Saint Peter – after the death and resurrection of Jesus – and his extraordinary battles with the heretical sorcerer Simon Magus – the man who could fly!

The later life of the man chosen to carry the future hope of the world on his shoulders – an uneducated working man – a simple villager and fisherman – but a holy man of incredible character – a man destined for greatness! His name was Simon, but he is known to history as Saint Peter. Here is what you've always wondered about – the rest of his story!

Already persecuted by Jewish traditionalists, gentile pagans, and imperial Roman authorities, the early Christians are now troubled by false messiahs, phony prophets, sham sorcerers, and mystery religions. And the greatest heretic is a man called Simon!

Strong in faith, will, and determination, and empowered by Jesus Christ with the 'Keys to the Kingdom', Peter takes on the challenge of his life, and proves to all the believers that he truly is the 'Rock of the Church'.
