Sojourners and Exiles
Text: 1 Peter 2:11-12 Be holy from the inside out. God calls us to take off our masks and be whole people wholly devoted to him and to his kingdom. There is no such thing as “dual-citizenship” in the kingdom of God. We are called out of darkness and into life, adopted as children […]

Living Stones
Text: 1 Peter 2:4-10 This is bigger than me. In our sin, we tend to think more of ourselves than we should. We forget that when we come to Christ we are adopted into a family. We are assembled into a body. We are raised into an army. In these verses, Peter reminds us […]
Love One Another
Text: 1 Peter 1:22-2:3 Loved people love people. Because of the presence of sin in our lives and in our world, everything is subject to decay and disharmony.

The Outcome Of Faith
1 Peter 1:6-9 Keep your eyes on the prize. The Lord is honest about the life into which he has called his children, it is riddled with trials. The trials of our lives are the crucibles in which we are refined and molded for our good and for God’s glory. Peter reminds us […]
Grace And Peace
1 Peter 1:1-2 Remember whose you are. What will happen when we truly LIVE SENT? If we take the mission of Jesus Christ seriously, then God’s word promises that people will be changed by the power of the gospel. But there is a warning as well. The world loves darkness more than light. […]
