What does it mean to live with joy as God’s people in a world filled with suffering? In 1 Peter 1:3–12, Peter shows us how to rejoice as elect exiles: by praising God for new birth, rejoicing through trials, and marveling at the gospel preached by the Spirit. Because even in the furnace of suffering, God is refining our faith until we reflect the image of His Son.
