1 Peter
About 1 Peter
In an era where cultural values and societal pressures constantly shift, it can be difficult to stand firm as a follower of Christ. The struggles we face—whether from external persecution or internal challenges—make the question of how to live out our faith more urgent than ever. In this series, "Strangers in a Broken World," we will explore what it means to live as God’s chosen people, as outlined in the book of 1 Peter.
We will dive into God's perspective on suffering, holiness, and our identity as exiles in this world. Together, we’ll seek to understand how these truths shape our lives and help us endure with hope, knowing that our ultimate inheritance is not of this earth.
We will tackle questions such as:
How should we respond to suffering as Christians?
What does it mean to live a holy life in a culture that often opposes God’s standards?
How can we balance living in the world without being of the world?
What is our calling as believers to reflect Christ’s love, even in the face of hostility?
How can we encourage and support one another as a community of faith amidst trials?
“Therefore let those who suffer according to God’s will entrust their souls to a faithful Creator while doing good.” — 1 Peter 4:19
Throughout this series, we will confront the reality that, as followers of Christ, we are called to live counter-culturally—rooted in the eternal hope of the Kingdom of God. We will learn how to endure hardship with faith, understanding that our suffering is never in vain, but is being used to shape us into the likeness of Christ.
Join us as we realign our hearts and minds to the truth of God’s Word and discover the strength and hope that come from knowing we are not home yet, but we are never alone in our journey.
