It is a sad, hard reality that people suffer. In fact, no one is immune to it. In fact, suffering was so severe in the first century church that Peter's first epistle deals with directly. Peter did not write as one who was unfamiliar with suffering and oppression. The opening verses in the first chapter of 1 Peter show how Christians can rejoice even while they suffer. Join us in this episode as we see that Jesus Christ never abandons us, no matter what kind of trials we endure.
