Elect Exiles

Sometimes following Jesus makes life harder, not easier—from being thought of as strange to facing real opposition. How do you keep going when faith leads to rejection? In 1 Peter 1:1-2, Peter sets the theme of the letter, reminding us that we are God’s chosen people—elect exiles—living in the world, but belonging to another.
