New Sermon Series: 1&2 Peter. For the next couple of months come with us and dive into God’s Word. An epistle written many years ago but so applicable to us today. In 1 Peter, it encourages the Christian believers to stay strong in the face of persecution. To emulate Christ in His suffering and to beware of their real adversary, the devil who “prowls around like a roaring lion seeking someone to devour” In 2 Peter, Peter’s theme is a simple one: Pursue spiritual maturity through the Word of God as remedy for false teaching and a right response to heretics in light of Christ’s promised second coming (2 Peter 1:3, 16).

Our call to worship is from Matthew 5:14-16

“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven."

Our call to worship is from Joel 2:12-13

“Even now,” declares the Lord, “return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning.” Rend your heart and not your garments. Return to the Lord your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love, and he relents from sending calamity.”

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.
