Stirred Up – Week 4
Jesus put the Church in the hands of His disciple and the rock, Peter. Just like us, Peter was flawed and stumbled. However, he had the strength of Jesus’ grace. In Peter’s final works (2 Peter 3), he moves us through a warning and the truth of what is to come. In the midst of that is God’s judgment, but also His patience and love, eager for our salvation. The chapter, the epistle, and Peter’s words close with encouragement regarding…
Stirred Up – Week 3
Peter is very passionate about warning the early church to be on their guard for false teachers. This is not unique to 2 Peter 2; it is all through scripture. We have a responsibility to know what is true and recognize false teaching. Donnie shares Peter’s insight on how to recognize false teaching.
Stirred Up – Week 2
This week in 2 Peter 1:16-21, Donnie talks about the power of scripture. The Bible isn’t just any book. Peter explained how they have written from first-hand experience of Jesus. The message is the light of God; it is God’s guide to your life. One has to ask themselves, What is the authority in your life? I will put my trust in the revelation of our creator. Isaiah 55:8-92 Timothy 3:16-17Hebrews 4:16
Stirred Up – Week 1
The first chapter of Peter’s second epistle challenges believers to actively pursue spiritual growth, remain rooted in God’s provision, and live lives that reflect His abundant grace. Today’s lesson focuses on three key themes. The Foundation of Faith: Peter emphasizes that believers have received a faith as precious as the apostles’, rooted in the righteousness of Jesus Christ. This faith provides everything needed for life and godliness, equipping us to face life’s challenges through the knowledge of Christ. The Pursuit…
Sojourners & Exiles Week 8
Today Nathan Harris finishes our teaching on the epistle of 1 Peter. In 1 Peter 4:17–5:14, we find a difficult challenge to grow through suffering. Glory and suffering are two sides of the same coin. But how do we not just get through it; how do we grow through it? We have to be community-minded; we are not alone in this; God has not abandoned us. He put us in a community. Take care of each other. God is drawing…
Sojourners & Exiles – Week 7
1 Peter 4:1-19 1. Give God your thoughts 2. Give God your best 3. Give God your pain
Sojourners & Exiles – Week 6
Your attitude has the power to change how you live. Drawing from 1 Peter 3:8-22, this message highlights how Christlike attitudes—like compassion and humility—shape our responses to tough situations, helping us to bless others, trust God, and live with purpose.
Sojourners & Exiles – Week 5
Today Peter talks about marriage. This can be a touchy subject, but realize that God has made it a unique institution for immense growth. It is one of the few institutions that God established, and if respected, it has a very powerful spiritual effect. 1 Peter 3:1-7 has encouraging words for wives and husbands. Respect, love, and honor each other. Value each other as Christ values you! Act to each other the way Jesus has acted to you—in patience, dignity,…
Sojourners & Exiles – Week 4
Today in 1 Peter 2:11-25 we ask, What do we fear? Do we fear public ridicule, being a social outcast, or just simply not fitting in? We are citizens of a different kingdom, and all we have to fear is the Lord. But this fear is not a debilitating fear. It is a fear of reverence, an understanding of authority; it is understanding who we are and who God is. Jesus calls us to have a similar respect for earthly…
Sojourners & Exiles – Week 3
This message focuses on our identity in Christ and the call to spiritual growth as outlined in 1 Peter 2:1-12. It highlights the transformation that comes with being God’s chosen people, called to live in holiness and proclaim His excellencies. As sojourners and exiles in the world, we are reminded of the spiritual battle against sin and the importance of living in a way that reflects our faith and serves as a testimony to others. The message challenges us to…
Sojourners & Exiles – Week 2
In this second message of our 8-week series on 1 Peter, we explore 1 Peter 1:13-25, where we are challenged to prepare our minds for action, set our hope fully on God’s grace, and live lives marked by holiness. We unpack how our future hope in Christ reshapes our present values and priorities. This sermon highlights the incredible cost of our redemption—the precious blood of Christ—and the enduring power of God’s Word to transform us. Practical steps for engaging with…
Soujourners & Exiles – Week 1
In this sermon, we began an 8-week study of 1 Peter, focusing on identity, hardship, and holiness. Reflecting on 1 Peter 1:1-12, we explored Peter’s greeting and introduction and what it means to live as sojourners and exiles in a world where we often feel out of place. This message unpacks the transformative hope of salvation, the refining power of trials, and the joy of belonging to God’s chosen people. Listen or watch to discover how understanding our identity in…
