Tested Faith | 1 Peter

What do you do when life gets hard? In this message, we explore how believers can rejoice through trials—not by ignoring pain, but by holding onto the living hope found in Jesus. Discover four gifts God gives us in suffering: His purpose, presence, plans, and people. No matter what season you’re in, tested faith can lead to lasting joy and deeper trust in Christ.

Living Hope | 1 Peter (Hill City East)

In a world where following Jesus feels increasingly countercultural, Peter reminds us that we are “elect exiles”—chosen by God, set apart by the Spirit, and sent into the world with a living hope. This message explores what it means to experience “kingdom culture shock” as Christians in a shifting culture, and how Peter calls believers to neither retreat from the world nor conform to it, but to live faithfully as citizens of heaven. Through the gospel of Jesus Christ, we have an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading—a living hope that sustains us through rejection, suffering, and uncertainty.

Elect Exiles | 1 Peter (Hill City East)

This summer, we’re journeying verse-by-verse through 1 Peter, a letter written by the Apostle Peter to Christians living as “elect exiles” in a world that often feels opposed to the kingdom of God. In this special gathering, instead of a traditional sermon, we experience the letter the way the early church would have: through a public reading of the entire book in one sitting. As you listen, pay attention to the themes of hope, suffering, holiness, identity, and faithful living that run throughout Peter’s words, and ask yourself what the Holy Spirit might want to say to you through this powerful letter today.
