You are not alone. Did you know that? One of the most significant discoveries that the followers of Jesus realized after Christ resurrected, was that He was still with them; but this time He would be living in and through them. That same power dwells in you and me today!

Our partners from Advice and Aid Pregnancy Center shared with us about how our support of the local clinic, makes a difference in the lives of unborn children and their parents, in our community.

The example of Jesus didn't line up with everything the followers of God believed "the messiah" was going to be about. And yet, the newly established church grew in favor with the people who were hearing about the life and death of Jesus. There was something unique about the character of those early followers of Jesus that we could probably learn from. May our stories be shaped by theirs, this week as we look to 1 Peter 5:8-14.

It seems to get more and more difficult each day, to respond to the world around us without starting some sort of argument! If you've ever felt the pressure of responding differently to a situation, but never quite understood why, that's exactly why Peter - the guy who Jesus called "the rock I'm going to build my church on" - wrote his letter to the brand new followers of Jesus. So how can we remain faithful in a hostile, unbelieving world?

What do the people closest to you, say fills your life? What have you let fill your life? Again, Peter has a reminder for those who say that Jesus is Lord - Greater is He who is in you, than the one who is in the world.
