Standing Firm in True Grace
January 10, 2024 • Tim Miller • 1 Peter 5:12–14
We have sojourned to the end of 1 Peter, but this is only the beginning of the journey. Join us now as we hear Peter’s heartfelt closing exhortation to his fellow sufferers and sojourners to stand firm in the true grace of God.
Family Matters
October 11, 2023 • Dale Jennings • 1 Peter 3:1–7
Family Matters! Now, there are two ways we can look at those words. Family Matters, in the context that there are relational dynamics and there are matters of the home that have to be dealt with and lived out. Then, there is Family Matters! When it comes to the eternal destination of each soul of our family, it matters! What if the dynamics are that the wife is saved but the husband is not? Reverse that, the husband is saved and the wife is not? Join us as we talk about that scenario and how Family Matters!
Called to Suffer Unjustly
October 4, 2023 • Tim Miller • 1 Peter 2:18–25
Suffering. We all avoid it. No one enjoys it. But if we call ourselves Christians, we bear the name of the One who suffered for us even though He didn’t deserve it. Join us as we seek the courage to yield ourselves to the gracious One who has called us to follow His example of suffering unjustly.
Christ the Cornerstone
September 6, 2023 • Tim Miller • 1 Peter 2:4–8
Have you been discouraged by the news lately? Do you worry about the future? Did you know that there is a way to face the future with peace and confidence? Join us as Peter helps us rediscover the precious truth that can make sojourners stable and steadfast in a world that is stumbling around in the darkness.
Love Born from Above
August 23, 2023 • Tim Miller • 1 Peter 1:22–25
There is nothing more important in the Christian life than love. It is the first in the list of the fruit of the Spirit, and Jesus Himself said the greatest commandments are that we love God and love our neighbors. The question is: how do we truly love? Where does our ability to sincerely love one another come from? Join us now as Peter helps us understand how to love one another well as we sojourn together in a world that’s not our home.
God, The Ultimate Judge
August 16, 2023 • Dale Jennings • 1 Peter 1:17–21
There is a day that every one that is living and has lived on this earth will stand before God for judgment. Why is God the ultimate judge? What will God judge everyone according to? As believers do we need to be fearful of that day? Join us as we see the Apostle Peter once again encourage the dispersed Christ followers of a hope that is ours in the Lord Jesus Christ!
Faith Grounded in Reality
August 2, 2023 • Tim Miller • 1 Peter 1:8–12
How can we be sure of what we believe? Today, the Christian message has come under attack as being unscientific, not based on observable facts. But is it really? Has God left us without evidence of His goodness and grace? Join us as we continue our study of 1 Peter and uncover the evidence that makes our faith sure and certain. God has provided proof that our faith is grounded in reality.
Living Hope, Sojourning On!
July 26, 2023 • Dale Jennings • 1 Peter 1:3–7
Living in a world that continues to promote and celebrate evil, as we see what is good is now called evil, and what is evil is now called good. This may cause some discouragement! Where can we draw hope in such a dark world? Is there hope that can bring us joy in what may seem to some a desperate situation? Quick answer! Yes! It is found in no other than the Lord Jesus Christ! Join us as we look at the Living Hope that is before us as we sojourn on in this life that we live on this earth right now!
Sojourners
July 19, 2023 • Tim Miller • 1 Peter 1:1–2
This world is a strange place that is growing stranger by the day. How do you live faithfully in a strange land that is not your home? How do you find joy and peace in a place where you are hated and despised? How do you praise God in the midst of suffering and persecution? God’s Word holds the answers to these questions. Today, we are going to hit the trail on a new series in the book of 1 Peter called Sojourners: Living Faithfully in a Strange World. Join us on this venture through the Truth that guides us as we sojourn through this world that is not our home.
