1 Peter 1:13-2:3
Living as Exiles

The aftermath of Hurricane Helene has been sobering to observe. People have lost everything and have been displaced from their homes and their hometowns. As we grieve for these families, it helps us understand the plight of an exile, which is Peter's primary audience in 1 Peter 1:13-2:3. He writes to believers who have been displaced and find themselves living in cultures that are hostile to Jesus and his Gospel. How should God's people live in such times? Does this give us permission to temporarily halt our pursuit of holiness? What should we be focused on?  Join us on Sunday as we explore the implications of being born again to a living hope.
