When we live in a world of busyness and noise, we become starved for solitude and silence whether we may realize it or not. Intentionally removing ourselves from interactions with other people and the noise of the world to create time alone with God and quiet to hear His voice, we feed our soul.

We study and meditate on God's word, for it reminds us that our identity and purpose in this life are rooted in God’s deep sacrificial love for us.

As powerful and wonderful as God’s grace is, it’s pretty easy to drift from it. As Peter ends his letter to those exiled and suffering, he calls us back to true grace and to stand firm in it.

Sometimes it can be hard to distinguish between fiction and reality. But a godly church knows who the real enemy is…Satan. And he is out to devour.

The church is designed to be a humble community, led by humble leaders, who follow Christ's example. Why? Because God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.

The youth bring a challenge to raise the bar in your walk with the Lord.

Suffering for proclaiming Jesus or following Jesus can be exhausting and painful, but eternal victory awaits. Suffering forces us to refocus on the eternal rewards, rather than the problems of our current circumstances.

The resurrection in the central defining event of the Christian faith. It not only provides us with eternal life, it gives us new life now. As a part of God's family, we have new purpose, new perspective, and new priorities.

Suffering as a Christian is unavoidable. While challenging in many aspects, the aim of 3:18-22 is to bring hope. To remind us that Jesus is vindicated, and so are we.

Scripture reminds us to be prepared to give an answer, or make a defense, to anyone who asks about our faith. Are you prepared? Are you living differently enough that others notice and ask?
