Peter reminds believers that every part of life—our suffering, our love for others, our acts of service, even our hospitality—can become a testimony to Christ. When we endure hardship with grace, or when we open our homes and lives in love, we point beyond ourselves to the God who sustains us. At the heart of this passage is the call to always be ready to give the reason for the hope we have. This hope is not wishful thinking or shallow optimism, but a deep confidence rooted in Christ’s death and resurrection. To glorify God “in all things” means living so that our words and actions consistently point others to Him—the source of our hope. Audio from Megan's sermon on November 9, 2025.
