''In brief,'' the apostle Peter was one of Jesus' prominent disciples and a leader in the early church. The teaching of the Roman Catholic Church is that Peter was the first bishop of Rome, or pope and that he had special authority over the church. This teaching is not generally accepted by other Christian denominations.
