The thought of submission is difficult for American Christians; and suffering under unjust leaders is something we can't tolerate.  But Peter's letter to those who had it much harder than we do are told to "endure... while suffering unjustly."

Special Guest: Nick Carter.

How can we live distinctly as Christians in a way that glorifies God? Peter helps us understand how we can be good citizens but still set apart [holy] in our culture.

Special Guest: Nicholas Piotrowski.

Being a Christian is not just an individual relationship with God but becoming the new temple in which God lives in and among His people. Join us as we gather for worship including taking the Lord's Supper and taking a biblical tour of the temple construction site.

Peter gives us the unwelcome reminder that we will all wither like grass, but there is something that never perishes where we can place our hope and grow into salvation.

Special Guest: Nick Carter.

Faith is not proven when life is easy, but when we walk through trials. In 1 Peter 1:6–12, we are reminded that God uses seasons of suffering and testing to refine our faith, making it more precious than gold. Even when we cannot see the purpose behind our struggles, we can trust the God who is faithfully working through them. This message explores how trials can strengthen our faith, deepen our hope, and point us toward the joy of our salvation in Christ.

Special Guest: Nicholas Piotrowski.

In this world of daily uncertainty with dangers all around, the letter of 1 Peter starts with a powerful declaration of our hope and security in the Triune God.

Galatians 3:8 contains one of the most astonishing sentences Paul ever wrote: "The Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham." The gospel was not launched at Pentecost. It was preached — in advance, in seed form — to a man in Ur of the Chaldeans. This sermon sits with that claim. What exactly was the gospel preached to Abraham, and how does it connect to the third thing Jesus said was written — that repentance and forgiveness should be proclaimed to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem? The mission to the nations was not a backup plan or a new development. It was the original promise, now fulfilled in the One who suffered, rose, and sent his disciples from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth. We close where Luke 24 ends: with witnesses who finally understood what had been written all along — and were sent.
