This is the sixth and final sermon in the Exiles + Nomads teaching series.
If you’ve ever felt caught between where you are and where you’re supposed to be—welcome. You’re not alone, and you’re not lost.
Maybe you feel like a stranger in your own life. Like you don’t quite fit in your neighborhood, your stage of life, or even your own skin. You’re somewhere between hope and giving up, and you’re not sure which direction you’re heading.
Here’s what might surprise you: two thousand years ago, a fisherman-turned-apostle named Peter wrote a letter to people who felt exactly like you do right now.
The book of 1 Peter opens with this: “To those chosen, living as exiles dispersed abroad...” (1 Peter 1:1)
Exiles. Scattered. Displaced.
Sound familiar?
That’s why we’re spending the next few weeks in Peter’s first letter – because what he wrote then is exactly what you need to hear today. We’re going verse by verse through 1 Peter to discover something that will change how you see your life: what if the displacement you feel isn’t a problem to fix, but a purpose to fulfill?
Join us as we uncover what it means to live with unshakeable hope when everything around you feels uncertain. You’ll discover that being an exile doesn’t mean you’re lost.
It means you’re sent.
See you this Sunday at 10:30am - we’re located at 1001 Hoffner Avenue, Orlando, FL 32809.
