No one wants to suffer. A lot of people make their choices to avoid suffering at all costs. But Peter never says that suffering in rare or may never happen. Instead, in 1 Peter 4:12-19, he reminds us that suffering is inevitable. So…as Christians how are we supposed to suffer?Join us as we unpack how the people of God understand and handle suffering, no matter what the circumstance might be.

We’re back in 1 Peter this week! In 1 Peter 4:1-6, he encourages us to take the truth of the cross and move forward, never looking back. He wants us to know it won’t be easy and people outside the Church won’t always understand why we choose what we do, but Peter points us back to why to be encouraged…no matter what.February 9, 2025 | 1 Peter 4:1-6 | Jonny Burns

This Sunday, as we reflect on gathering to approve church business for the next season, we’ll also pause to reflect on what it means to be the community God has designed us to be. To consider this, we’ll turn to Paul as he shares his view of a healthy church in 1 Thessalonians. 1:4-10. Join us as we reflect and focus together on what we are called to be as The Church.

This Sunday, we’re tackling Part 2 of 1 Peter 3:18-22. After digging a little deeper in 3:18-20 last week, we’ll look at the passage as a whole and examine the battle happening between good and evil. What does Peter want us to remember when we spend time thinking about things like “spirits in prison” and Noah and baptism? Join us as we continue to get encouraged no matter what the brokenness of evil throws at us. January 26, 2025 | 1 Peter 3:18-22 Part 2 | Chris Ward
