By God’s grace, today we begin a new, and important, 20-week series through 1 Peter. This ancient letter was written by the Apostle Peter, between A.D. 62-63 from Rome, to churches spread throughout Asia Minor (modern day Turkey). His aim was to help them—and us—stand firm amidst trials, persecution, heartache in a world that is not our true home. In a word, Peter wants us to know exactly who, and whose, we are. His letter is theologically weighty, yet simultaneously down-to-earth, and is filled fresh encouragements to wholehearted faithfulness while living in exile.
