1 Peter | Perseverance In Suffering
Shared on: Jul 29, 2019
How do we persevere through times of sorrow and loss? What hope do we have to sustain our souls in the midst of the hardships of this life? How are we to prepare for the fiery trials that are sure to come because of our faith? By continually pointing us to both the power and the promises of God in Christ the letter of 1 Peter offers timeless instruction to the suffering believer. The hope we have in Christ is greater than the darkest troubles of this world and although the road will surely be marked by struggle, God himself has promised to restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish our hearts in victory. May this collection of resources empower you to preach the essential truths of this book to the souls of your community in order that they may persevere in suffering as they wait upon the mighty hand of God to bring deliverance.
