About the series -
1 Peter is a letter to 1st-century Christians living on the edges of the Roman Empire, whom Peter calls “exiles” or “strangers.” Though outsiders in society, they are insiders in God’s Kingdom, born into a living hope through Jesus' resurrection. Peter encourages them to rejoice in suffering, love deeply, and live holy lives. He challenges them to honor everyone, even those who treat them harshly, as they follow Jesus’ example. Underneath his encouragement and instruction is the underlying assumption that disciples of Jesus may share in his suffering, but they will also share in his resurrection! This series invites us to follow in Jesus’ footsteps, becoming like Jesus in our families, workplaces, and communities.
