When we first met Peter in the Gospels, he was a brand-new Christ-follower. Now, years later, his life has been changed by grace. He has much to say about doctrine, his own trials, and the work of the Holy Spirit. He encourages believers to persevere and hope in Christ’s resurrection. These six lessons through 1 Peter are part of THRU the BIBLE’s trusted study through the whole Word of God.  

Thru the Bible—1 Peter

We are royal priests, a holy nation, God’s chosen possession, and we can show others the goodness of God. Join us as we discover who we are in Christ and how we live new lives in Him! 

Set Apart

1 Peter was written to the “elect exiles of the Dispersion” (1 Peter 1:1), a group of believers forced to flee their homes and lives due to persecution. Although they lost much, Peter reminds his readers that they have “an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading” (1 Peter 1:4). Truly, Jesus is our Living Hope, transcending all our difficulties to provide hope and courage amid opposition.
