Pastor Mike
Suffering for Jesus is NOT a popular topic. It wasnt 2,000 years ago and it hasn't gotten any more popular. But Peter teaches us that there is a greater reward in store for those who face great trials and tribulations in Christs name. Not always in this life but a Promise from God in eternity

Point 2: The PROBLEM

Point 3: BE PREPARED
Point 3: BE PREPARED
So, instead of grumbling and complaining about stuff, we need to be prepared with an answer as to why we can hold to Hope in spite of everything falling apart.
