    Don’t fear people. Fear Christ and follow Him from grief to glory. Look to Jesus alone to keep your conscience clear even in the midst of your pain. Then you will enjoy the benefit of pain.

    Joanna Lerud of Steamboat Rock, Iowa, was standing up to leave a restaurant when she hit her head hard on a lamp hanging above the table. As she staggered away, she heard an older gentleman, who was sitting nearby, say, “It will feel better when it stops hurting.” (Joanna Lerud, ...read more

    Giving a clear testimony of the Gospel is part of being a follower of Christ.

    Testimony. What goes through your mind when you hear that word? Maybe a court scene and telling about a crime you witnessed. Or making a statement to the Police. Or standing in front of a large group to share your personal experience with God. The word “testimony” comes from the word ...read more

    based on 7 ratings
     | 5,855 views

    Despite Persecution, we are called to live as Christians in a corrupt world. Peter tells us to maintain Christian conduct, to live wisely (with common sense), and to fear God instead of man.

    Text: 1 Peter 3:8-14 8 Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous; 9 not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a ...read more

    It’s worth following Jesus—even if it brings mistreatment—because, in the end, there will be victory.

    THE BIG IDEA: It’s worth following Jesus—even if it brings mistreatment—because, in the end, there will be VICTORY. Think about how absurd Christianity sounded back when it was brand new (in the first century): Christians worship a man who was executed as a criminal and who they claim came back to ...read more

    The Hope In You

    Contributed by Russell Brownworth on Apr 28, 2008
     | 3,717 views

    Hope is the opposite of despair; how can I "sanctify" Christ in my heart so I can defend the Gospel in this despair-filled world?

    but in your hearts sanctify Christ as Lord. Always be ready to make your defense to anyone who demands from you an accounting for the hope that is in you; 1 Peter 3: 15 (NRSVA) Hope is the opposite of despair. Charles Swindoll tells the story of a missionary who was sitting by her ...read more

    There will be times in our lives when we suffer for doing good deeds, but follow Jesus’ example and continue doing good deeds.

    Text: “Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good?” (I Peter 3:13). How many people here this morning like to do good deeds? We like to do good deeds because we were raised with that thought in mind. Our parents taught us the difference between good and evil. Our Sunday school ...read more

    In this message we look at persecution and sharing our faith and life.

    When I was a boy there was a side lot on our church property where we would play football. I remember playing with my best friend. It was just the two of us, so it wasn’t really football - it was more of a game of tackle the guy with the ball. I used to pretend like I was Tony Dorsett. I would get ...read more

    In His victory we are made victorious, even when we suffer unjustly, and for His cause.

    THE VICTORY OF CHRIST’S SUFFERING. 1 Peter 3:13-22. Who will harm us if we do that which is good (1 Peter 3:13)? The question is rhetorical. If God be for us, who can be against us (Romans 8:31)?
