1 Peter, Media, Sermons | by Pastor Craig Sturm

We are at the front end of a new series in 1 Peter. His aim in this letter was to encourage churches throughout Asia—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.

Today we continue our series through 1 Peter. Peter’s letter is theologically weighty, yet simultaneously down-to-earth, and is filled fresh encouragements to wholehearted faithfulness while living in exile. Today, in 1:3-5, Peter bursts into a doxology (a praise of God) and puts his spotlight on God’s merciful, and miraculous, new birth available to all who embrace Jesus by faith.

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.

What comes to mind when you think of the church? Do you think of the church as a temple, a family, a priesthood, or a body? All of these metaphors are used in scripture to describe the new reality that is formed when we, by God’s grace, through faith in Christ, become believers. These metaphors describe the deeply interconnected nature of our new life together. Today we’ll look at how we’re made into a new body and what that means for us living and serving together.

“This morning we have the privilege of being served by Ray Ortlund. (His wife, Jani, was serving the women of DCC at the women’s retreat this weekend.) Ray is a pastor of Immanuel Church in Nashville. He’s also the author of several books, including Preaching the Word Commentaries on Proverbs and Isaiah, a contributor to ESV Study Bible, and The Gospel: How the church portrays the beauty of Christ—which you should read. Ray serves on counsel of The Gospel Coalition and is a member of the Acts 29 church planting network, just like us. Though there is much to love about Ray, what I admire most is his humility and genuine love of Jesus. I hope you’ll join me in giving him a warm DCC welcome.” – Pastor Adam

How does Jesus impact how we think about our jobs? What difference should it make if an employee is a follower of Jesus? Or, more personally, would anyone in your office be surprised if they discovered you were a Christian? That’s an important question. Most of us will spend well over 80,000 hours “working” in our lifetime; that breaks down to two-thirds of our waking hours during the work week. Do those hours matter to Jesus? Yes. They matter more than we realize.
