Today we continue our series through 1 Peter. Peter's letter is theologically weighty, yet simultaneously down-to-earth, and is filled fresh encouragements to wholehearted faithfulness while living in exile. In our passage today, 1 Peter 2:9-12, Peter will pull back the veil of untruth to reveal the glory of Jesus' church as a God-created new people group of worshiping sons and daughters, set apart for His kingdom purposes by His eternal merciful love, for His glory and the joy of the nations in Jesus!

Humble Pastors

Today we continue our series through 1 Peter. Peter's letter is theologically weighty, yet simultaneously down-to-earth, and is filled fresh encouragements to wholehearted faithfulness while living in exile. In 1 Peter 5:1-5, Peter nears the end of his letter and directs his attention to the elders of the local churches to whom he writes. Jesus’ local churches will only be as healthy as its leaders. So, he gives six emphatic exhortations that are just as relevant today as when they were first written.
This is the True Grace of God
July 1, 2018 • Pastor Luke Davis • 1 Peter 5:6–14
Today we wrap up our series through the first epistle by the Apostle Peter. His aim throughout the letter has been to declare the true grace of God and have the church resolutely stand therein. However, God’s kindness to us may look quite different than we expect. As a good Father, though, He cares for us and is intent upon His children gaining His perspective so we might persevere.
Unsurprised by the Fiery Trial
June 17, 2018 • Pastor Adam Sinnett • 1 Peter 4:12–19
Today we continue our series through 1 Peter. Peter's letter is theologically weighty, yet simultaneously down-to-earth, and is filled fresh encouragements to wholehearted faithfulness while living in exile. Today, in 1 Peter 4:12-19, Peter offers his last major call to endure suffering for Jesus’ sake with faith-filled hope. Following Jesus can be a costly calling, so don’t be surprised by the fiery trial. But, it is worth it—He is worth it.
