The Bible is clear that if you are a Christian, you will suffer in some form of rejection, ridicule, or persecution. Do you know what it is you will believe about your suffering while in the midst of that conflict, opposition, or persecution? Peter gives us some encouraging and practical truths about how to suffer well.
The Book of 1 Peter was written to a church that was facing serious trials and turmoil (not unlike our world today). The hardships they were confronted with had them doubting God’s grace and made them fearful of their future. Peter reminded them that this world would never truly be their home (or ours) because they were citizens of heaven. We must put our ultimate hope in Christ as we live in the tension of being in the world, but not of the world. This ten-week series will help us successfully navigate the messed up society we’re in and experience lives of joy and hope as we learn to follow God’s Way!
