Chad Balthrop • 1 Peter 4:1-6 NKJ Everyone draws the line somewhere. Draw behind the crowd, you’re ridiculed. Draw with the crowd, you’re celebrated. Draw ahead of the crowd, you might be considered a criminal.Scripture reminds us that God set our boundaries in pleasant places. The best lines aren’t ours to draw. Whatever the crowd may say, wherever the crowd may go, within the borders of His grace, discover the strength to stand.

Chris Wall •  1 Peter 4:12-19 NIV From the very beginning time, God has pointed His people to live each day with heaven in mind. Serving the Lord naturally moves us as a church to walk together. In this walk together, we should expect persecution to come. But remember, when it comes, we are not alone nor are we without resources. In fact, it is in our persecution that a lost world is able to recognize the incredible mercy of God.

Chris Wall • 1 Peter 5:1-7 NIV In times of persecution and trial, the local church is one of your greatest divine gifts of help, blessing and relationships.

Most people simply accept what they see without really looking deeply into scripture...

Chad Balthrop • 1 Peter 5:6-14 Great stories come out of great struggles. Scripture reminds us that God set our boundaries in pleasant places. Yet every day we face the pressure that comes from desires that tempt us to play outside the lines, people that push us to move the line, and an adversary that seeks to destroy us anywhere the line may fall. The pressure you experience today prepares you for the battle you face tomorrow...
