Week 7 - Living With An Eternal Perspective

November 24, 2024 • Clint Conner • Matthew 6:25–34, 1 Peter 5:5–11

In a world that seeks quick fixes and avoids discomfort at all costs, Peter reminds us that following Christ means embracing a different way of navigating life's grind. Instead of being overwhelmed by anxieties, we are called to humbly submit to God, trusting in His care. We stand firm in faith, knowing that our trials are not without purpose—they prepare us for eternal glory.

Week 6 - Understanding The Cost Of Loving Others

November 17, 2024 • David Gaylor • 1 Peter 4

Christian suffering is distinct from human suffering, as it involves enduring rejection and ridicule for the sake of Christ. This suffering serves a higher purpose, allowing us to share our faith and hope with others. Christlike love, exemplified by Jesus, involves doing what is right and best for others at personal cost. The Holy Spirit guides us in living out this love through prayer, hospitality, and using our gifts to serve others.

By following Jesus' example of humility and self-denial, we can make a lasting impact and stand out for God's glory.
