In today's episode, Bartley dives into 1 Peter to show the biblical significance and Spirit-filled power of "Silence in Suffering." Peter writes this epistle to a scattered, persecuted, and distressed group of Christians across Asia Minor. Rather than dispel their fears of further persecution and a better life, Peter offers them a strategy for living the Christian life in the midst of a culture that hates them. The increasing relevance of this biblical message seems self-evident for those Christians living in the western world, among other places, today. Western culture is increasingly anti-Christian and secular, as to morality. Understanding the biblical plan for dealing with persecution and the unjust suffering that comes with it is becoming more and more necessary each passing day.

So, heck it out and see 1 Peter 2:18-20 has to say about it!

Thanks for tuning in!
