SERIES DESCRIPTION
First Peter is a primer for Christians for how to handle suffering. Peter writes to the suffering Christians of Asia Minor who are under a variety of hardships. Peter doesn’t ‘pray it away’ but offers a victorious way THROUGH suffering. We will look at the strategies Peter suggests and employ them in our own life and walk with God.
SERMON DESCRIPTION
The refining fire of suffering strengthens our faith. It grows stronger by no other means. Necessary suffering is part of our maturing in faith. This isn’t God’s punishment. It proves the genuineness of faith and the faithfulness of God. Hang on to this when you suffer!
