1 Peter 1:01-03 The Living Hope

In this study:

  • The great Roman fire of 64 AD and it’s aftermath
  • How the theme of suffering runs throughout 1 Peter
  • The importance of understanding the background and setting of Peter’s first letter
  • How  persecution for some Christians leads to their being driven from their homes
  • How all Christians are, in a sense, exiles
  • How despair overwhelms many in our culture and what we can do about it
  • How Biblical hope changes our attitude and our behavior and our motivation

Stay in the battle!
