In these verses, the Apostle Peter reminds the suffering Christians to have the same attitude as Christ. He warns them that they will experience attacks from their old friends. Peter says that in light of their suffering, they should keep loving and serving each other in real and practical ways.

The Bible is clear that if you are a Christian, you will suffer in some form of rejection, ridicule, or persecution. Do you know what it is you will believe about your suffering while in the midst of that conflict, opposition, or persecution? Peter gives us some encouraging and practical truths about how to suffer well.

In these verses, Peter presents some very practical exhortations for Christians. There are five great attitudes that they need to model with each other. Peter then sets a radical standard of returning good for evil. As he talks to the persecuted Christians, he gives them a number of keys to living the good life.

What does the Bible say it looks like to be a woman? how about a wife? In a world filled with blurred lines (in the areas of roles and expectations), God’s Word remains clear. When corruptible beauty is being promoted by fashion magazines and reality stars, you can find tremendous wisdom in the Bible. The Word is clear about a woman’s true beauty and value. This teaching will share timeless truths on that true beauty (as well as the influence a woman can have on her marriage, family, and this world). We will also look at the remarkably high standard husbands have been called to in marriage. In the good times and the bad, there is tremendous hope found in God’s Word.

In a day and age when it seems trendy to rebel against "the man" (our boss or the government), Peter presents a different standard for us, as Christians. In these verses, there are practical, timeless truths, related to submitting to the authorities in our lives. When this seems difficult or impossible, Peter points us to the ultimate example of submission, Jesus Christ.
