We are at the front end of a new series in 1 Peter. His aim in this letter was to encourage churches throughout Asia Minor—and us—to stand firm (1 Pet. 5:12) amidst trials, persecution, and heartache in a world that is not our true home. Today, in 1:6-9, Peter helps us to see that we can have a increasingly precious faith — not in spite of various trials — but, a faith that actually becomes more precious, more joyful, because of the trials.
