1 Pyɛɛrɛ 2:4

1 Peter was written to early Christians scattered throughout Asia Minor. Peter called his beloved readers “elect exiles” because they were suffering for their faith and longing for their heavenly home. Desiring to encourage them to live victoriously while trusting the Lord, he identified three living things they had in their sojourning. You also have these things, Christian: a living hope, the living Word, and the living stone–Jesus Christ himself.

Do you ever wonder if you are qualified for what lies ahead? The qualification from our Father isn’t a one-time event but a constant wooing that draws us closer and closer to His heart. The song of His calling is always new, always fresh, and always hopeful for the future. Join us for a deep, 3-day journey as we explore the heart of God, our calling, and the power of dark hallways.

This reading plan includes three daily devotions based on Tony Evans’ book Unleashed: Releasing God’s Glorious Kingdom in and through You. This study will explore what is needed in our lives to unleash the power of God in our lives to bring His kingdom to this world. We will look into what it means to unleash God’s kingdom purpose in our lives, what it means to stand on the truth that is Jesus and His Word, and how God provides us with all that we need to accomplish His kingdom agenda.

This Life.Church Bible Plan is a study of 1 Peter to accompany Pastor Craig Groeschel’s series, Different. In this world, you’ll have struggles. You’ll face opposition. You’ll be challenged. And there’s a reason for that: this world is not your home. So answer hate with love, find joy in the midst of trials, and rely on a strength beyond yourself. You’re meant to be … different .
