3 17 24 THE ROAD TO HUMANITY

March 17, 2024 • Pastor Jeff Pinder • 1 Peter 5:1–5

BAD THINGS AND GOOD PEOPLE

March 10, 2024 • Pastor Dave Lundin • 1 Peter 4:12–19

Nobody likes hard times. But hard times are especially hard to handle when it seems like you’ve done everything right and you suffer anyway. In today’s message, Peter addresses this very issue.

A STATUS OBSESSED SOCIETY

March 3, 2024 • Pastor Jeff Pinder • 1 Peter 4:7–11

The world navigates relationships through a transactional lens. What can I get out of it? Peter is encouraging us to navigate our relationships through a value lens because everyone is valuable regardless of their ability to pay us back.

NO GOING BACK

February 25, 2024 • Pastor Jeff Pinder • 1 Peter 4:1–6

Loving Life and Seeing Good Days

February 18, 2024 • Pastor Jeff Pinder • 1 Peter 3:8–22

Why do so many people think that we are supposed to be happy all the time?

So how do I seek good days in the midst of bad ones? Tune in because Peter has an answer for you.

Do you know who you are? Sometime we feel like we just don’t fit in. But when we are in Jesus, our identity is inseparably linked with his…the rejected, chosen one. And that reality shapes our identity.

May I Have a Taste

January 28, 2024 • Pastor Jeff Pinder • 1 Peter 1:22–25, 1 Peter 2:1–3

January 14, 2024 • Pastor Jeff Pinder • 1 Peter 1:1–12

Peter is writing to let us know that this world is not our own. We are not an immigrant We are definitely not a tourist. We ARE exiles and strangers in this world.
