If you could ask Jesus to do one thing what would you ask Him to do? Most of us would ask Jesus to bring some kind of peace or healing in our lives. Part of the good news of the gospel is that Jesus can and will bring His renewing power to us. What can be lost on us is how He does that. Through this passage we will see that Jesus renews things not primarily through other-worldly signs and wonders, but by working in and through His disciples as we live a new kind of life: a cross-shaped life.

One of the most glorious and yet most difficult relationships in life is marriage. Some people, because of the difficulty, have grown jaded and view marriage as a mistake to be avoided. As a disciple of Jesus, how does following him make any difference in marriage? The answer, even though it's hard to believe, is that it makes all the difference. That's because discipleship to Jesus develops a cross-shaped life which transforms marriage from a power struggle to a relationship of sacrificial love.

One of the challenges of understanding the Bible comes from translating ancient customs into modern life. But a reality that transcends time and culture is one that Peter introduced to us last week: life under authority. That theme continues this week but with a more everyday focus, and a more life-shaping outcome. How does being a disciple of Jesus shape how we live under authority, even under unjust authority? Peter will show us that our discipleship to Jesus will develop a cross-shaped life.

Politics and government might be the most heated and charged topic of our shared life today. It’s one of the most important, it's one of the most difficult, and it’s definitely one we as Christians need to understand in the context and teaching of God’s Word. Of all that Scripture says, there isn't much that directly or explicitly speaks to government and our life as Christians under it. This passage in 1 Peter is one of the clearest and most direct teachings.

A hallmark of the Christian life is joy; a contented, happy, exuberant sense of being. Usually when we think of joy, we think of momentous occasions or experiences that call for celebration. But the unique and hard-to-believe thing about Christian joy is that it is also found in somber, distressing, and even sad moments. The big question is, why? How? As Peter will show us, it has everything to do with the future that comes after those times, as well as the one who has secured that future for us.

It’s become cliché to say that we are living in a unique time in history nationally and globally, but that’s because it’s true. We live in confusing, changing, and tense times. With so much change and uncertainty, how do we live into our Christian life faithfully? Answering this question is one of Peter's highest aims with his letter and from the beginning, we see that it all starts with our identity: understanding and owning who we are in Christ.

Guest Speaker Julien de Leiris.
These two brief verses are some of the most powerful in all the Bible.  They have not only changed lives, but have literally sparked a world-changing movement.  Their focus is the gospel, a message we hear and celebrate often.  And that's because in the gospel, there is power, there is the righteousness of God, and there is life of faith.
